The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to: • Increase and advance the development of gene therapies for rare disease clinical trials in Canada; • Generate the evidence required for first-in-human clinical trials, in part by working with Canada’s biomanufacturing capacity (National Research Council of Canada) and health technology regulator (Health Canada); and, • Increase current and future capacity across the Canadian rare disease landscape (i.e., among researchers, knowledge users, patient(s)/caregiver(s)/family) to improve readiness of gene therapies for first-in-human clinical trials.
