Designing for Future Compassionate Use and Expanded Access
At Dawn Therapeutics, we are committed to establishing ethically designed Expanded Access / Early Access programmes once our investigational therapies advance toward clinical study. At present, no Early Access or compassionate use programmes are active, as all of our therapies remain in preclinical development.
What Are Early Access / Expanded Use Programs?
These programmes may allow patients with serious conditions to access investigational treatments outside of a clinical trial, under exceptional circumstances and at the discretion of regulatory authorities. They serve as a bridge between the laboratory and formal clinical trials, but are not a substitute for clinical study participation.
Compassionate Care
Patient-centered approach
- Case-by-case evaluation
- Global regulatory compliance
- Physician partnership
Our Approach to Future Early Access
As we move closer to human studies, Dawn Therapeutics plans to adopt a responsible and transparent access strategy built on these principles:
Strict eligibility criteria
aligned with regulatory guidance and clinical ethics
Case-by-case evaluation
through an independent medical review process
Physician-led requests only
all proposals must come from licensed treating physicians
Compliance with regional laws and oversight
including institutional review boards and regulatory authorities
Clear transparency and registry
once active, access programmes will be publicly listed and documented

Transparency & Regulatory Registration
In keeping with our commitment to transparency, Dawn Therapeutics registers all open Early Access Programs on ClinicalTrials.gov and other regional registries where applicable.

All programs are publicly registered for complete transparency and regulatory compliance.

All descriptions, plans, or statements about Early Access or Expanded Use programmes are forward-looking and intend for future implementation, not current provision. Any access to investigational therapies will always comply with applicable regulatory requirements, ethics oversight, and informed consent standards.
