Partnerships to improve research in maternal health

As part of our collaboration with Birmingham Health Partners, the ABPI was a commissioner on Healthy Mum, Healthy Baby, Healthy Future, a report that makes the case for improving maternal health by using research to increasing access to medicines for use in pregnancy.

TransCelerate, a non-profit organisation that collaborates with the global pharmaceutical sector, has developed a landscape review of the existing regulations and guidance on the development and monitoring of medicines taken during pregnancy and breastfeeding. This landscape was written to help pharmaceutical companies better understand and comply with these regulatory requirements, with the aim of including more pregnant women as clinical trial participants.
