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?

Session 2B Oncology Paediatric Development: Learning from Experience

Session Chair(s)

Through two case examples (nilotinib in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), and selumetinib for neurofibroma and glioma), the session will be an opportunity to share learnings and to understand how two different companies are developing paediatric plans having in mind the final objective, which is to facilitate children’s access to important medicines while addressing important medical needs. In addition, the use of physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling to support paediatric development will also be addressed.
