Breaking down the barriers to widespread delivery of ATMPs
Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs) are innovative and potentially life-changing treatments for patients. They are biological medicines incorporating gene therapies, somatic cellular therapies and tissue engineered medicines.
ATMPs now have become a real therapeutic option requiring NHS pharmacy and clinicians to be involved in the delivery of marketed medicines as well as of clinical trials. Advanced Therapy Treatment Centres (ATTCs) have been set up to ensure that UK patients are able to access ATMPs and to ensure that the UK continues to be at the forefront of ATMP manufacture and clinical delivery.
The aim of this meeting is inform the audience about the ATMP journey from concept to commercialisation - looking at regulatory hot topics for both GMP and GCP, challenges to hospital implementation, the role of Pharmacy, the role of the ATTC, ways to address the QP expertise deficit and give a forum for networking and discussion.
This programme will appeal to Chief Pharmacists, Clinical Trials Pharmacy Managers, Hospital Research and
Development, sponsors, QPs, and member of the ATMP Manufacturing Community.

Product Approval Accreditation Programme
The South West Product Approval Accreditation Programme is a regional scheme that has been developed to deliver a functional and high-quality training and assessment programme for individuals who carry out the task of “product approval” for aseptic products, prepared within hospital pharmacies under section 10 exemption from the Medicines Act 1968.
The programme addresses the training requirements of both pharmacists and suitably trained and experienced, registered pharmacy technicians. As a result, the accreditation must be applied alongside an operating framework that ensures that pharmacist supervision and other governance and safety requirements are fulfilled.
