Optimising the Development of Paediatric Medicines

Session Chair(s)

Johannes  Van den Anker

Johannes Van den Anker

Professor, Department of Paediatric Pharmacology

Basel University Children's Hospital, Switzerland

This session will look at the learnings of the first 10 years of the Paediatric Regulation for the development of paediatric medicines (formulation, toxicology, clinical development) and discuss how we can draw from this learnings and see what the next 10 years may bring.

Learning Objective : • Identify regulatory guidance for extrapolation in pediatric/rare diseases; interpret the details of this process through specific examples • Apply this information to predict whether a given disease and drug can use full extrapolation, partial extrapolation, or no extrapolation • Discriminate that this process is dynamic, requiring updating and revision based on relevant emerging information
