Session 1, Part 1: Good Regulatory Practice and Optimised Registration Pathways

Session Chair(s)

Paul  Dearden

Paul Dearden

Senior Director, Global Regulatory Policy

Biogen, United Kingdom

Patients are demanding faster access to new medicines, especially in areas of high unmet medical need, ineffective and inefficient regulatory systems can be a barrier to access to safe, quality medical products. This session focuses on the key principles in regulatory systems (good regulatory practices) to provide sufficient flexibility to enable innovation and ensure agencies’ resources are efficiently utilised. Speakers will describe related international guidances and regulators will share their experiences implementing good regulatory practices and optimised registration procedures. Finally, interactive panel discussions will address the question “can we do more to improve systems and align with these principles?”
