According to recently released data, 12 out of the 28 drugs approved in the first quarter of 2020 by the FDA were repurposed drugs.

The drug repurposing approval process is an effective tool that accelerates the development of drugs for new indications or drug reformulation. In addition, the development of drug repurposing compared to a de-novo drug development saves overall up to 11 years, 50-60% less cost and a significant number of subjects reduction in the clinical trials.

Repurposing drugs were developed for various diseases, including cancer, infection, inflammatory disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases. BBCR Consulting focus on the development of repurposing drugs for orphan indications and rare diseases. Due to the significant complexity of orphan drug development and lack of effective treatment for many of them, we aim to provide options to address the current unmet medical needs for a wide range of rare diseases worldwide.
