Academic development of ATMPS in Belgium – an exploratory study of the legal and strategic options

KCE Reports 396C (2025)ATMPs (Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products) are complex drugs based on cells, genes or tissues. Currently, they are mainly developed and used to treat certain cancers or genetic disorders. Only a small number of ATMPs are currently commercialised by the industry and they are often very expensive, up to several million euros per treatment.

That is already better than 10 years ago, when a study carried out by KU Leuven found that there was 1 nurse per 11 patients.
