Session Chair(s)

Head of R&D/Medical Affairs Hub Japan

Swedish Orphan Biovitrium (SOBI) Japan, Japan

Medical Affairs has various responsibilities, including information activities performed in pursuit of “Launch Excellence” during the development, application for approval, approval, and launch process of a drug, building medical strategies, engaging with key opinion leaders, and responding to drug-related inquiries. These medical activities are separate from promotion and independent of marketing, but the role of Medical Affairs is not yet widely recognized in Japan, or even within the pharmaceutical industry. This session will provide expert lectures on the role and duties of Medical Affairs, including Launch Excellence activities and support of investigator-initiated clinical trials, what different stakeholders expect from them, and what issues may arise.
