While any drug development program can face regulatory hurdles, developing cellular and gene therapies often presents unique challenges. Small and mid-sized biotech and pharma companies developing cellular and gene therapies should begin to understand critical nuances for successful regulatory meetings and submissions and how they impact strategic decisions during the product development life cycle.
At the end of this webinar, you should have a better understanding of:
- Regulatory requirements to initiate clinical trials for cellular and gene therapy submissions in the US and EU
- Differences in product submissions for cellular and gene therapies vs. small molecule drugs
- How to apply the Target Product Profile to guide product development
