How Can Phase I Data from the West Accelerate Drug Development in China and Japan? 
The Science and Practice of Ethnobridging
 
Wed, May 10, 2023 11:00 AM EDT   
 
 

Event Overview:

Ethnobridging studies collect data on Japanese and Chinese populations early in development to help fast-track drug registration in these two expanding and critical markets.
  • Explore how integrating a cohort of Japanese or Chinese volunteers into SAD/MAD early phase trials can eliminate the need for a separate ethnobridging study
  • Reach patients sooner in these countries with faster development
  • Ensure better planning of Phase II and Phase III trials when more is known about the compound sooner
  • Learn what is included within a successful and complete clinical data package to be acceptable to regulatory agencies in these countries
Key Learning Objectives:
  • Recognize the value of a global, multi-ethnic approach to early-phase drug development
  • Understand the intrinsic and extrinsic factors in drug response, with emphasis on ethnicity
  • Review the current Chinese and Japanese regulatory requirements for data
