The applicant for Holoclar is Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A.The active substance of Holoclar is ex-vivo expanded autologous human corneal epithelial cells containing stem cells.Holoclar was designated as an orphan medicine and an advanced therapy medicinal product (ATMP) and EMA provided protocol assistance to the applicant during the development of the medicine on multiple occasions. Both orphan and ATMP designations and the associated incentives, such as free scientific advice or protocol assistance, are among the Agency’s most important instruments to encourage the development of medicines for patients suffering from rare diseases, and the development of innovative medicinal products.
