Connect with a Global Network of Leading Myopathy Drug Developers, Build Strategic Partnerships & Drive Success
As more companies move into the muscular drug development space and pharma investment accelerates, evidenced by multi-billion dollar spends from the likes of Servier and Novartis. In turn, the demand for complex preclinical models, digital endpoint support and muscle-specific imaging and biomarker services is growing.
The challenges for rare disease trial design and drug development are unique, with decision makers looking for innovative 2D and 3D preclinical models with high translatability and tools to accurately measure and quantify muscle function. With limited patient pools and biopsy samples available, pharma and biotech are seeking precision and specialist expertise throughout every phase of the drug development process.
The inaugural Muscular Disorders Drug Development Summit offers a unique platform to showcase your solutions to a global network of leading myopathy drug developers revolutionizing preclinical, translational and clinical programs in 2027.

Explore shared development challenges, indication-specific insights, and opportunities to accelerate therapeutic advancement across multiple disease areas.
Key Services & Solutions
Our audience of decision makers across muscular disorder programs are actively seeking partners who specialize in:
Preclinical CROs & Disease Models
Supporting biopharma to evaluate the safety, efficacy, biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of novel therapeutics before clinical development. As gene-therapies, RNA-targeting approaches, and next-generation modalities advance across muscular dystrophies, developers are seeking CROs with specialized neuromuscular expertise and translational disease models. From animals to human-relevant systems such as muscle-on-a-chip, sponsors need partners who can generate predictive data, improve clinical translation and help de-risk development decisions.
Clinical CROs
Designing, implementing and executing clinical trials across rare muscular dystrophies while navigating the complexities of small patient populations and evolving regulatory expectations. Developers are looking for CROs with expertise in neuromuscular diseases, global trial operations, patient recruitment and natural history-informed study design. Partners who can work seamlessly across functions and manage compliance requirements are critical to accelerating development and working towards clinical success.
Digital & Functional Biomarker Services
Providing innovative tools and technologies to measure disease progression, treatment response and muscle function across muscular dystrophies. As sponsors look beyond traditional clinical endpoints, demand is growing for providers who can measure digital biomarkers with wearable devices, and remote monitoring solutions alongside established functional assessments.
