The Clinical Patient Management System (CPMS) is a secure and fully GDPR compliant IT platform aiming to facilitate the cross-border discussion of rare clinical cases.
The platform is supervised by the Directorate General for Health and Food Safety (DG SANTE) of the European Commission and funded under the EU4Health Programme.
The CPMS 2.0 is open source, distributed under the EUPL license.
One of the main aims of EBRA is to facilitate the emergence of research projects in specific areas in active clusters and therefore EBRA supports carefully selected clusters. An EBRA cluster is understood as a research community that can be directed towards basic research, clinical research and/or methodological approaches under a common topic and disease area within brain research. EBRA clusters promote co-operation and exchange between brain research projects and networks. The clusters organise activities with the aim to promote external collaborations, foster the exploitation of results, address data sharing issues and foster access to research infrastructures.

EUnetHTA develops several services that help inform the decision-making process around the introduction of pharmaceuticals and other technologies at the national, regional and European levels. These include Joint assessments, early diologues and Post Launch Evidence Generation (PLEG)
* Assessment submission: Health technology companies are encouraged to contact us via the following two channels if interested in a EUnetHTA assessment of their product. These are distinguished by EUnetHTA as Pharmaceuticals and Other Technologies (i.e. non-pharmaceuticals).
*Early dialogue: parallel scientific advice with the European Medicines Agency. This aims to allow medicine developers to obtain feedback from regulators and health technology assessment (HTA) bodies on their evidence-generation plans to support decision-making on marketing authorisation and reimbursement of new medicines at the same time.
* Horizon Scanning: topic identificatin, selection and Prioritisation for HTA cooperation

The Innovation Task Force (ITF) is a multidisciplinary group that includes scientific, regulatory and legal competences. It was set up to ensure coordination across the Agency and to provide a forum for early dialogue with applicants on innovative aspects in medicines development.
The objectives of the ITF are to:
* Establish a discussion platform for early dialogue with applicants, in particular micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), academics and researchers, to proactively identify scientific, legal and regulatory issues of emerging therapies and technologies;
* Address the impact of emerging therapies and technologies on current scientific, legal and regulatory requirements with the Agency’s committees and their working parties;
* Identify the need for specialised expertise at an early stage;
* Provide advice on the eligibility to Agency procedures relating to research and development, in conjunction with the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP), the European Commission and national competent authorities (NCAs) as appropriate.
National scientific advice for developers of medicinal products or medical devices and other technologies to optimize prospectively their development programme. • Two in one approach = get two NCA opinions within one application
Visit websiteC4C Expert Advice service gives you fast and efficient access to over 400 clinical, methodology, and patient and public involvement experts.
Their up-to-date and in-depth insights can provide value at any stage of paediatric drug development but are especially useful to improve study design.
We provide end-to-end support, resulting in high-quality, independent advice reports that can be used in regulatory discussions on PIPs (paediatric investigation plans) and PSPs (paediatric study plans )
Obtain multidisciplinary insights from a single request and a single contract.
A tailored team of experts is assembled for each request.
Improve patient recruitment and retention through making a study more patient-centric based on the insights of children, young people and families.
