Operation Warp Speed for Rare Diseases: Expected Boom in Drug Development and Approval

Advarra

Given the relatively small populations affected by any one rare disease or condition, a pharmaceutical company developing an orphan drug may reasonably expect the final approved drug to generate relatively small sales (when compared with the drug development costs) and consequently incur a financial loss.

A research team searches for every gene that helps tumors evade immunotherapy

Broad Institute

The team found that deleting the gene Ptpn2 made tumors sensitive to PD-1 therapy, and they published their findings in Nature in 2017. The researchers soon partnered with Calico Life Sciences , which in collaboration with AbbVie , discovered drug candidates that block the PTPN2 protein.

The genetic modifier approach: identifying the right target for rare diseases

Drug Target Review

Strikingly, a strong genetic link between target and disease biology is emerging as a predictor for success in clinical trials. 2,3 This is exemplified by drugs that target disease-specific genes or genetically distinct patient subsets which are more likely to succeed in demonstrating efficacy in clinical development.

Evaluating Impurities in New Drugs to Prevent Delays in Development

The Premier Consulting Blog

(Degradants are impurities arising from the degradation of the drug substance or a reaction with an excipient and/or the immediate container.) What sets this guidance apart from ICH Q3A and ICH Q3B is that it applies to all stages of clinical development, not just to approval. evaluating the safety of) impurities and degradants.
