Case Study
Streamlining Regulatory Submissions for a Novel Advanced Therapy Medicinal Product Trial
The European regulatory landscape for advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) is complex, with approval pathways dependent on product classification by the EMA's Committee for Advanced Therapies (CAT). Premier Research assisted a European ATMP developer with a Phase 2a study in six countries, involving a genetically modified naked DNA plasmid classified as a gene therapy medicinal product. To streamline regulatory submissions and avoid lengthy GMO approvals, Premier Research developed a documented risk assessment and rationale to persuade authorities in four countries that additional GMO approvals were unnecessary.
