Workshop on the development of antimicrobial medicinal products for paediatric patients

• Date:
  Thursday, 21 June 2018, All day
• Location:
  European Medicines Agency, Amsterdam, the Netherlands

The European Medicines Agency, the Japanese Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency and the United States' Food and Drug Administration co-organised this workshop to discuss the development of antibiotics for children. This provides an opportunity for international regulators to explore with medicine developers, clinicians and clinical trial investigators, clinical development plans that would allow for the timely development of antibiotics for children and discuss a regulatory pathway for their approval.
