Gene Patents and Licensing Practices and Patient Access to Genetic Tests |
|
|
| |
In the fall of 2006, SACGHS initiated a study to assess the positive and negative effects of gene patenting and licensing practices on patient and clinical access to genetic tests and on the public's health and quality of life. In March 2009, SACGHS released a Public Consultation Draft Report on Gene Patents and Licensing Practices and Their Impact on Patient Access to Genetic Tests for public comment until May 15, 2009. During the summer of 2009, SACGHS will be reviewing the public comments and any relevant new data and revising the report accordingly. The final draft report and recommendations will be discussed at SACGHS' October 2009 meeting. Although SACGHS is no longer seeking public comments on the consultation draft, that document and its appendices will be available at this page until the final report is posted.
