The Sakigake Designation System was introduced in 2015 to provide innovative treatments to patients as early as possible. Pharmaceuticals, medical devices, in vitro diagnostics and regenerative medicines designated under the system are currently under development, and in 2017, two pharmaceuticals and one medical device received approval from PMDA. In this session, the challenges and points for improvement of the scheme will be discussed, based on the case studies of the approved products and by reviewing the approval and pricing procedures from the perspectives of the industry and regulatory authority.
