CBI's West Coast Forum on Early Access Programs
March 9-10, 2010
Website: http://www.cbinet.com/eawest
If a loved one was diagnosed with a life-threatening illness that had no approved treatment, what would you do? Would you give up? Or would you do everything in your power to search for and gain access to possible treatments? For many patients in critical need, potentially effective treatment options could still be in development or yet to be launched in the country of need. However, depending on the condition, many of these patients don't have time to wait for the product launch. In these scenarios, Early Access Programs (often referred to as Named Patient, Expanded Access and Compassionate Use Programs) provide pharmaceutical companies with an ethical and controlled mechanism to provide access to promising drugs that have the potential to meet genuine unmet medical needs. In order to help navigate the complexities of these programs, CBI has organized a West Coast Conference on Early Access Programs. After two successful endeavors on the east coast and one in Europe, we have expanded our offerings to provide a larger audience with the opportunity to hear industry thought-leaders, regulatory officials and patient advocates explore market access, ethical considerations, SOP development, pricing and reimbursement and much more!
