About
Join us for the ICMRA ‘Rare’ Symposium and Workshop 2024. A multi-stakeholder event focusing on rare diseases, organised by the International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities (ICMRA) and hosted by Swissmedic, open to selected stakeholder organisations and to regulators.
The symposium will take place on September 16, 2024 and will be followed by a regulators workshop on September 17, open to participating ICMRA authorities only. The symposium and workshop together aim to appreciate evolving technological and regulatory developments encountered with (ultra-)rare diseases.
Key objectives:
To better appreciate the main challenges and opportunities encountered with (ultra-)rare diseases in translation and clinical development
To critically compare existing regulatory requirements in this space and identify opportunities for innovators/investors, in particular the utilization of DHTs (digital health technologies) for data generation and recruitment.
To hear from patients and caregivers about their journeys and how we can better involve them
