There is a growing trend in the pharmaceutical industry towards accelerated development of therapeutics to address unmet medical needs. The shorter timelines coupled with increasing complexity of the development candidates presents extraordinary challenges for managing the chemistry, manufacturing, and controls activities. This session will provide a background on the existing regulatory expedited pathways. Approaches for successful clinical development, regulatory approval, and commercialization of therapeutic oligonucleotides within the framework of accelerated development will be discussed.

Learning Objective : At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
  • Describe the different expedited pathways available
  • Understand CMC strategies to facilitate successful accelerated development
