Abstract

Abstract In 2018, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation convened over thirty subject matter experts in clinical development, manufacturing, and regulatory assessment to determine how the development and approval of medical countermeasures could be accelerated in the event of Disease X. Disease X is the result of a presently unknown pathogen with epidemic or pandemic potential. A key opportunity to accelerate the scientific assessment and regulatory approval of medical countermeasures exists within efficient navigation of facilitated regulatory pathways. It was identified that not all stakeholders will be able to skillfully navigate the facilitated pathways offered by the various regulatory agencies during a public health emergency. To democratize this knowledge, we have written an overview of the facilitated approaches which have been developed and refined by Stringent Regulatory Authorities and the World Health Organization for the primary assessment of medical products. We discuss the conditions necessary for use of these approaches, scenarios in which certain pathways may be applicable, and the pros and cons of these approaches. We also address opportunities available to developers in, or developers who wish to access, low-income countries that may have nascent regulatory frameworks.
