Rare Disease Day; takes place worldwide, typically on or near the last day of February each year, to raise awareness among policymakers and the public about rare diseases and their impact on patients; lives. Each year, the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Clinical Center sponsor Rare Disease Day at NIH as part of this global observance. Rare Disease Day at NIH aims to raise awareness about rare diseases, the people they affect, and NIH collaborations that address scientific challenges and advance research for new treatments. The goals of Rare Disease Day at NIH are to: demonstrate the NIH commitment to helping people with rare diseases through research; highlight NIH-supported rare diseases research and the development of diagnostics and treatments; initiate a mutually beneficial dialogue among the rare disease community; exchange the latest rare diseases information with stakeholders to advance research and therapeutic efforts; shine a spotlight on stories told by people living with a rare disease, their families, and their communities.

NCATS launched the Rare Diseases Registry Program (RaDaR) website to provide the rare diseases community with easily accessible guidance on how to set up and maintain high-quality registries that are based on best practices and data standards. The goal is to enable rare diseases patient organizations to better promote and support patient-focused research and the collection of patient data that can be used in developing treatments for rare diseases.

This activity is sponsored by the Clinical Pharmacology Program, Office of Clinical Research Training and Medical Education (OCRTME) at The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Clinical Center (CC). It consists of elective rotations at the Office of Clinical Pharmacology (OCP) and the Office of New Drugs (OND) of the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. It is for NIH staff, with a primary focus on clinical fellows and research fellows, who expressed an interest in learning more about FDA regulatory sciences applicable to drug development research. Rotating fellows are mentored by FDA staff on the required elements of an Investigational New Drug (IND) application and the key elements of the FDA review process from a regulatory perspective. This program also established a mechanism for FDA scientific reviewers at the OCP to rotate at the NIH CC and to interact with members of a clinical research team, thus acquiring a better perspective on clinical research protocol implementation and the requirements of an Institutional Review Board (IRB) at the NIH.
