Gain a Common Understanding of the Current and Emerging State of Rare Diseases and Orphan Products.
Join patients, patient organizations, drug and device companies, researchers, government professionals, and investors to discuss ways to bringing rare disease and orphan product research, development and access into the spotlight. Sessions will be organized around three central themes: policy, research and regulation, and special challenges. These sessions are intended to promote advancements in science, patient care and other considerations that will address the needs of the 30 million Americans suffering from a rare disease. Last year’s event brought together more than 300 stakeholders, and this year’s event promises even more. 
FEATURED TOPICS:
  • Policies affecting rare diseases in this evolutionary time
  • Legislation that, by the time of the meeting, Congress is likely to have
    enacted, including special provisions applicable to orphan products
  • How to be a more effective advocate
  • How to work with federal agencies on grants and orphan designations
  • Ways to de-risk your investments in orphan products and better understand
    better the timelines for research and regulatory reviews
  • How the FDA and NIH work and interact with the drug and device
    development processes
  • How to develop efficient clinical rare disease programs and avoid common pitfalls
  • How the government and private sectors are addressing the special challenges
    faced by patients and companies in the new health care environment
  • And more...
