OrphanXchange is a website freely accessible to all stakeholders but specifically designed to meet industry needs. It aims to facilitate the transposition of scientific developments into therapies and diagnostic tools in the framework of the orphan drug regulation.
Unregistered users can query the database and obtain topics matching their query, if available. Registration is required to access detailed information. It is free-of-charge.
OrphanXchange operates in collaboration with Orphanet which is a database of rare diseases encompassing an encyclopaedia and a directory of services in twenty European countries.
Orphanet is the appropriate tool to access the list of on-going research activities in the field of rare diseases, as orphanXchange only lists projects seeking partnership.
OrphanXchange is supported by INSERM (Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale),
LEEM (Les Entreprises du Médicament) and by DG Research of the European Commission (OrphanPlatform Contract n° LSSM-CT-2004-503246)
