[S23] What Patient Registries Bring to Rare Disease Medicine Development
Session Chair(s)

National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry, Japan
In drug development for rare diseases, the small number of target patients often makes it difficult to collect the number of patients required to verify the drug’s effectiveness in a clinical trial. Therefore, pharmaceutical companies often do not encourage drug development for rare diseases. But in recent years, development of patient registries [for rare diseases?] has been vigorously promoted. This session will introduce practical use of, and current utilization problems with, patient registries for drug development from different expert points of view.
