European Medicines Agency launched its new PRIME (PRIority MEdicines) scheme in March 2016 to strengthen support to medicines that address an unmet medical need. PRIME aims to bring promising innovative medicines to patients faster by optimising medicine development and facilitating accelerated assessment. The session will be the first opportunity for stakeholders to hear from and engage directly with EMA senior leadership and the CHMP chair, Tomas Salmonson, about PRIME. Participants will also get the opportunity to hear feedback from the patient perspective as EMA prepares to implement this critical initiative.
