Towards Patient-Centred Healthcare Systems

Boston, 07 May 2007
 

Today European biotech industry leaders publish a new Healthcare Manifesto. More than 325 million patients to date have benefited from biotech medicines to treat or prevent heart attacks, Multiple Sclerosis, breast cancer, cystic fibrosis, leukaemia and other diseases including rare disorders. But many patients do not have access to treatments and many diseases are still untreated. The manifesto, published by EuropaBio sets out seven key policy principles, areas that will need to be addressed in order to handle the healthcare innovations expected over the next few years that will provide the answers to unmet medical needs.
