Drug repurposing, repositioning, and rescue all allow pharmaceutical companies to maintain or increase the lifecycle of drugs and decrease the expense of the full research and development process. In today’s society, life science organizations not only develop strategies and methods to help find cures for diseases; they also utilize data from past clinical trials to uncover potential new indications to repurpose, reposition or rescue a drug. With more than 7,000 known diseases worldwide, drug repurposing provides an alternative route for companies to provide treatments to patients faster.

At ExL’s 2nd Strategic Partnership for Drug Repurposing Forum you will hear the latest indications for repurposing, rescuing and repositioning existing drugs to explore the newest innovations. Attendees will learn about the different resources available to them, including public-private partnerships, foundations, patient advocacy groups, universities and other funding partners. Come network and build partnerships with all stakeholders.

 Top Five Reasons to Attend

  1. Engage in case studies and panel discussions on how to excel in searching for drug repurposing opportunities and uncover new indications for existing drugs
  2. Cover new methods in the pipeline by using innovative strategies to discover new therapeutic uses for existing molecules
  3. Identify new technologies used for the evaluation of repurposed drugs
  4. Explore how to develop strategic partnerships between the government, universities, patient advocacy groups, foundations, and sponsors
  5. Understand the FDA regulations (505b) for New Drug Applications, the legal framework and intellectual property laws surrounding drug repurposing
