G-E-T-ting there – how gene editing technologies could change more than genes
2023-05-18T12:57:00+01:00By Harriet Edwards
The field of genome editing technologies (GETs) is rapidly advancing, marking a new and exciting era of curative medicines. These products can alter genetic material in patients, highlighting the crucial need to introduce dedicated legislation to ensure that GETs are developed and maintained in a safe and effective manner.

An overview of the regulatory framework for advanced therapies
2023-04-06T07:57:00+01:00By Regulatory Affairs Workgroup SINDUSFARMA
Advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) have recently advanced in development and are subject to regulation in some markets. This article summarises the regulatory framework for ATMPs in some of the markets where these requirements are in place: Argentina, Brazil, Europe, and the US.
HM8: The present and future of developing and commercialising cell and gene therapies in a global world
2022-12-05T00:14:00+00:00By Nathalie Bourrit
Gene therapies are highly innovative products which have been approved only for the treatment of rare diseases so far. Changes in manufacturing processes during development as well as difficulties in gathering large clinical data sets explain the common challenges encountered by gene therapy developers to demonstrate the benefit of their ATMP.
FDA meetings: How to hold a successful meeting across the drug development lifecycle
2022-06-24T16:13:00+01:00By Daniela Drago, Danielle Helton Corwin
This continuing professional development supplement discusses the available meeting options for products regulated by CDER and CBER, which should help the reader select the appropriate avenue to receive the Agency’s advice and develop a viable regulatory interactions strategy.
Regulatory complexities and challenges of biosimilars
2022-06-15T10:09:00+01:00By Ash Ramzan, Manfred Kurz, Claudia Sailer
This continuing professional development (CPD) supplement focuses on the regulatory complexities and challenges associated with biosimilar products and their development. Although biosimilar products have been registered and approved for use in the EU for more than a decade, there is increasing speculation and excitement on the potential for biosimilars with increasingly complex structures, eg, multi-subunit, extensively post-translationally modified, and lipid-containing products.
The Olaratumab experience
2022-06-09T10:47:00+01:00By Alex Bloom, Natalie Thomas, Michael Sinks, Colin Gillis, Daniela Drago, Davina Stevenson
As highlighted within this CPD article, a conditional marketing authorisation (CMA) can be revoked in Europe. However only one occurrence has occurred since 2006 (in April 2019). Lartruvo (olaratumab), a humanised antibody, was granted a CMA via accelerated assessment on 9 November 2016 for adult patients with a locally advanced, ...
