Biotherapeutic products (BTPs), also known as biotherapeutic medicines, contain structurally complex active substances produced by living organisms. Due to their complexity and method of manufacture BTPs require distinct regulatory approval standards relative to chemically-synthesized small molecule medicines. This is also relevant for licensing copied versions of a BTP, or similar biotherapeutic products (SBPs) made by a different manufacturer where regulatory concepts developed for generics should not have been applied. In all these licensing scenarios regulators need to evaluate the results of comparability exercises, including sensitive head-to-head analytical, pre-clinical and clinical comparisons with the original product as a basis for approval. SBPs do not contain chemically identical active substances, and may have slightly different benefit-risk profiles, therefore it is necessary to monitor post-approval safety on a product-specific basis. Policymakers may therefore emphasize the need for product-specific identification in patient records and safety reports using either a unique trade name or a distinguishable non-proprietary naming system. The unique nature of BTPs also informs the nature and degree of interchangeability between the originator and SBPs versions. Many policymakers also emphasize that switching between SBPs should only occur with the involvement of the prescriber. It is recommended that pharmacy substitution would only be appropriate when there is a robust framework for a competent authority to assess product-specific evidence of interchangeability. Another challenge is posed by the historical existence in some jurisdictions of copy BTPs that were not assessed according to current regulatory standards. To address this situation the World Health Organization has proposed a regulatory assessment framework wherein the status of such products can be normalized via the orderly submission and review of supplementary data.

Orphan legislation provides incentives to industry to investigate rare conditions that otherwise would be unlikely to be investigated. These incentives include, free access to scientific advice during the development of their clinical programs (‘protocol assistance’); reduction in fees payable to EMA for review of the marketing authorisation and subsequent licence maintenance fees; sustained market protection in the form of market exclusivity in addition to a range of national incentives. To qualify for these incentives companies must apply for orphan designation confirming the seriousness of the condition which has inadequate alternative therapeutic options (for the diagnosis, prevention or treatment) and that the condition qualifies in terms of low prevalence in the European community. The company must also provide evidence of medical plausibility including likely significant medical benefit for patients to be treated with the product for the proposed orphan indication. If an application for orphan designation is not accepted then a company is able to appeal providing detailed grounds for reassessment and will receive a second opinion from the PDCO. The period of market exclusivity awarded by orphan designation will require that future applications received by the EMA for the same condition have to undergo an assessment of similarity to ensure that no variations or new applications for ‘similar’ medicinal products are granted licences during this ten year period. Products gaining orphan designation provide regular/annual reports regarding their development status, status of global regulatory submissions and any change likely financial returns predicted for the indication.

The national scientific advice procedure can vary from country to country, with some national regulatory agencies not giving advice at all. Usually it is a face-toface meeting, for which there are no pre-specified dates. It can be requested at any time during the development process, also while concerned studies are in progress. The national procedure timelines are flexible and depend upon a local procedure, and can last from two to four months. The procedure is coordinated by a group of national staff, which often includes CHMP and SAWP members of the Agency, but can involve external experts as well. Essentially, the national scientific advice is a national opinion around issues concerning pre-clinical development, clinical development (trial design, statistical methods, RMP, etc), and quality aspects. Any deviation from the advice has to be justified. The advantages of asking a national scientific advice revolve around the flexibility of the procedure, with the possibility of having face-to-face meetings and ask general questions, as well as addressing specific national issues. On the other hand, timelines for the procedures are very variable, in particular when external experts are required. In addition, the national agency may ask the sponsor to go to CHMP for scientific advice. Finally it is important to consider that the national advice is the opinion from a single country and may diverge from the EU-wide position. In fact, the national advice is perceived as non-binding by some EU regulators.

Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is a clinically under-recognized hereditary disorder with multi-system manifestations, most prominently in the lungs and liver. A rare skin manifestation is also described. The AAT protein is synthesized in the liver and to a lesser extent in macrophages and neutrophils. AAT is the physiological inhibitor of a variety of proteases most notably neutrophil elastase (NE). Unopposed, NE and other proteases attack the lung matrix causing structural damage and markedly impairing host defence. In the commonest form of AAT deficiency the mutated Z AAT is improperly folded, polymerises and aggregates in the liver. As a result less AAT is secreted into the bloodstream and gets to the lungs. This results in liver disease due to AAT aggregation in the liver and pulmonary damage due to the deficiency in the lung rendering it unable to protect against NE-mediated damage. In this review we will discuss AAT deficiency in detail, outlining the pathogenesis, and the clinical manifestations of the condition.

Anginera is an epicardial patch developed on the basis of Dermagraft, another FDA-approved product. The underlying principle is that the fibroblasts are cells which can attach and stretch across spaces thus creating a human tissue. Retained in a natural matrix, fibroblasts can deliver grow factors and cytokines [1] which can promote angiogenesis and blood vessel maturation (Fig. 1). Indeed, it has been observed that, following the positioning of the patch on the injured cardiac tissue, new cardiac vascularisation is formed, with improved perfusion and indications of improvement of ventricular wall motion.

List of the new health (professional) and social (administrative) services provided by pharmacy according to new Italian law and National Health Service Authority; weak and strength points, examination of all the aspects. New health services are important to give effort to the pharmacist role, on the other hand the social ones need time and human resources to run. Some pharmacy provides a wide range of services for free already and small pharmacies cannot compete due to problems dealing with the surface of the shop or with the number of employees. New strategies oriented to help and protect small pharmacies are vital, but the most important thing is to create a network of pharmacies that will offer new services; everyone must join it, we do not want pharmacies lack in knowledge in the future and not professional.

Thus, the pharmaceutical industry acts against infections and diseases in nature, as well as other attacks on our health that can weaken it or bring it to a complete end. Unfortunately, these technologies are not innocuous; they eliminate “threats” but create “risks”, even for the health-related object of protection (suffice to say the side effects of drugs like Vioxx or Thalidomide).

Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD) is probably the most common life threatening inherited disease in Europe. It is estimated that in excess of 100,000 individuals on the Continent suffer from it. It fatally affects the lungs (emphysema) and liver (cirrhosis). As the only therapy for liver AATD is transplantation and as lung disease is far more common, I shall confine my remarks to lung related AATD for which replacement (augmentation) therapy has been developed and is fairly widely used. This is a plasma derived product and is IV delivered. An inhaled product is currently being developed also. However, most patients do not know that they have the condition and most doctors do not know that some of their patients have the condition either. This is true even with symptomatic patients. They are usually diagnosed with Asthma or COPD. This in turn, means that they are being inappropriately treated with therapies that do little for their condition of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency. It has been estimated in the USA that it takes an average of five doctors, over a seven year period, to diagnose the condition in a patient. Even after that long delay there is no guarantee that an Alpha-1 patient will be diagnosed. To date, only c. 5% have been diagnosed in the countries that are looking for them. AATD is a deficiency of a vital lung protecting protein. Therefore, it would seem that the obvious therapy is to replace or augment that which is lacking. This therapy has been developed and is now being widely used in the USA and in Europe. In Europe it is licensed and prescribed in the following countries:

After more then four decades, the regulation of pharmaceuticals still is an evolving and much discussed topic within Europe from a political and economic perspective. Even though the benefits of regulatory harmonization remain uncontested, the constant review and evaluation of the sector may raise public concerns regarding regulatory performance. If regulatory 0experts still see the need for improving existing regulatory provisions, there is reason to believe that the current system does not live up to its expectations. An assessment of regulatory effectiveness, depicting the degree of goal attainment, provides a systematic answer to such questions. Drawing on the regulatory framework, the governance and the outcomes of the regulatory process the development of regulatory effectiveness since the beginnings of European regulation in the sector is discussed. While a continuous improvement from the perspective of effectiveness is traceable throughout time, some issues impeding the performance of the regulatory regime remain. Even though the pharmaceutical package may help to mitigate some of the identified problems, additional efforts will be necessary to finally strengthen the effectiveness of European pharmaceutical regulation and public health.
