Cell and Gene Therapy Products:
Research to Product Registration

Regenerative Medicine is an emerging field aimed to restore both structure and function to the musculoskeletal system. This field has great potential to transform the current practices and standard-of-care in Medicine. It integrates a multidisciplinary approach to address patient needs. To ensure that regulated advanced therapies are provided at clinical point-of-care (POC), adherence to current regulations and legislations need to be emphasized in tandem with the research and development of regenerative medicine products. In our local regenerative medicine landscape, the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency (NPRA) in Malaysia ensures the quality and safety of pharmaceutical products, including Cell and Gene Therapy Products (CGTPs). The Regenerative Medicine Virtual Symposium 2021 with the theme of ?Cell and Gene Therapy Products: Research to Product Registration?, aims to provide a platform for the various stakeholders in the regenerative medicine industry to share their experience in meeting the requirements by the international regulators (i.e. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)) and local regulators i.e. NPRA and Medical Device Authority (MDA), to register their CGTPs as practical products for patient use. This symposium aims to gather all stakeholders including industries, researchers and regulators to exchange their views in this challenging transition time. This meeting also serves as a platform for your researchers, including postgraduate students and postdoctoral research fellows to present their research work related to regenerative medicine.
