DIA/EFGCP/EMA Conference on How to Optimise Children’s Access to Innovative Medicines

United in the goal of increasing the availability of new medicines to paediatric patients, how can we leverage examples from past successes to overcome future barriers?

Setting the scene…With 10 years of paediatric regulation, hundreds of agreed Paediatric Investigation Plans and a growing number of ongoing paediatric clinical trials one question has still to be answered: will all these efforts also lead to increased availability of new medicines to patients and prescribers in Europe? What has been achieved during these period as a result of the Regulation? The session will give an overview on the state of the play from the different stakeholders involved.
