Gene-Targeted Therapies: Early Diagnosis and Equitable Delivery [Day 3]
Currently, technological developments are offering the hope of new therapies for individuals with rare disease at a pace that has the potential for significantly challenging the existing infrastructure for efficient, effective, and equitable delivery. It is important therefore, to plan and be prepared for these challenges. Changes need to be implemented to improve the process of getting more treatments to more patients, more quickly. Gene-targeted therapies have the ability to provide treatments to multiple disorders rapidly. Gene-targeted therapeutics, such as virus-mediated gene replacement, somatic genome editing and ol...
