Patients are at the center of all we do. Beginning with research and development of our medicines and continuing beyond approval, we partner with patient communities to understand their specific priorities and develop ways to provide support, including:

• Access to our medicines through our Expanded Access Policy
• Patient support programs that drive product education and disease awareness, such as grocery store tours exploring low-Phe food options for those with PKU
• Grants for a variety of events, activities and projects that educate patients and increase awareness about complex conditions
• Support for Investigator Initiated Studies to advance scientific innovation for complex conditions
• Additional support programs such as RARE Scholars, an annual scholarship for students living with rare conditions

Access to Our Therapies in Low- and Middle-Income Regions

As part of our commitment to expanding access to our medicines, we work to ensure that people from low- and middle-income regions have access to our medicines. Treatment for rare conditions comes with unique challenges, and the path to access varies in each region. For these reasons, we partner with all those involved in breaking down regional obstacles and facilitating paths to care, including doctors, health officials, researchers, community advocates, suppliers and patients themselves. Our approach includes:

• Reaching national pricing agreements in a number of low- and middle-income countries
• Adjusting established agreements following major regional events such as armed conflict and natural disasters
• Tailoring drug delivery processes to meet unique regional needs: for example, identifying ways to maintain frozen medicines in route to areas with infrastructure challenges
• Partnering in initiatives to improve diagnostic capacity and identify those in need of treatment
• Designing patient support programs that address specific barriers to care in individual regions
