FDA Rare Disease Photo and Video Project.This new RFA includes increased emphasis on natural history studies with high quality and interpretable data elements that can facilitate rare disease product development. The program continues to evolve to address the many unmet needs in rare diseases. Both natural history studies and clinical trials for rare diseases are supported through the Orphan Products Grants Program with a goal to increase the number of treatments for rare diseases with an unmet medical need and exert a broad and positive impact on rare disease drug development. In 2020, there were more than five product approvals associated with the Orphan Products Grants program, including a treatment for thyroid eye disease and a source of calories and fatty acids for the treatment of pediatric and adult patients with molecularly confirmed long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders (LC-FAOD). This program has supported rare disease clinical trial research since 1983 and has facilitated over 70 product approvals.
