ATMP is a term used in the legislative framework implemented by the European Union to regulate cell therapies, gene therapies and tissue engineering products.
The main goals of this group are to:
- foster interdisciplinary (quality, non-clinical, clinical) scientific discussions on emerging innovative therapeutic concepts and technologies
- establish an interdisciplinary forum for Access members to discuss ATMP-specific topics with a focus on assessing benefits and risks and on regulatory decision-making
- encourage mutual exchange and harmonization on the regulatory assessment of ATMPs
- explore potential synergies and opportunities for work-sharing, reliance and providing joint scientific advice
- publish guidance and recommendations on common areas where the group has established a harmonized approach, where appropriate
