Our commitment
Our mission is to transform the lives of people affected by rare diseases By 理解ing patients’ unique needs, we can research and develop innovative medicines, support access and advocate for the rare disease community.
We believe it is our responsibility to listen to, 理解, and change the lives of patients and those who work tirelessly to help them. Our innovation begins with 理解ing people living with rare diseases, which fuels all of our efforts.

Our strategy in Rare Disease
Alexion’s pioneering legacy in rare diseases is rooted in being the first to translate the complex biology of the complement system into transformative medicines. By driving innovative research and development (R&D) across new disease targets and modalities, we have diversified our pipeline into additional rare diseases over the last several years. 今天, as part of AstraZeneca, we are building bridges across our scientific platforms with a focus on bringing more innovative medicines to people worldwide.
Our rare disease strategy focuses on three core priorities:
1. Accelerate by creating smart and efficient strategies to speed access to our medicines for patients.
2. Innovate by investing in science, platforms and capabilities, including using our own technologies and research capabilities.
3. Reach beyond our current geographic footprint to as many rare disease patients as possible.
Rare disease news and stories
澳门葡京赌博游戏的R&D方法
For 30 years, Alexion’s pioneering science has led to the development of transformational medicines for rare diseases, and we continue to lead the way today. Our success is tied to listening, to 理解ing, and responding to the communities we serve.
Rare disease R&D presents unique challenges that require continuous innovation to deliver meaningful medicines for patients. Driven by our patient-centric approach, we pave the way by tailoring elements of the R&D process and developing new tools and methods to gain a deeper 理解ing of many rare conditions and the needs of the people living with them.
澳门葡京赌博游戏的人民
We invest in and value people who believe in the importance of our purpose and 理解 what it takes to deliver on it. In everything we do, we are empowered and committed to speak up and perform at our personal best to accelerate our collective impact for people living with rare diseases. Our culture is rooted in integrity, inclusiveness, and our dedication to joining and supporting the communities in which we live and work.
I am delighted to work with Alexion colleagues to discover, develop and deliver medicines that change the lives of people suffering from rare diseases. We also look forward to applying Alexion’s complement biology platform across areas of AstraZeneca’s broader early-stage pipeline, and to making our rare disease medicines available to patients in many countries where AstraZeneca has a strong presence.
Join our team
We are innovators, leaders and collaborators. And at the heart of everything we do is an intense desire to pursue the toughest challenges and truly change the world for people living with rare and devastating diseases.
Our medicines
We cannot provide detailed 信息rmation about our prescription medicines on this website, in compliance with regulations.
Our medicines are approved in individual countries for specific uses and the 信息rmation we provide for patients is governed by local regulations. In some cases, health care professionals and patients can visit local AstraZeneca websites to find out more about our medicines. Please note that in some countries we are not allowed to provide very much, or sometimes any, 信息rmation on our prescription medicines so you should seek alternative trustworthy sources. Always ask a healthcare professional for advice about medicines.
Our pipeline for Rare Disease
Advancing our pipeline every day
We’re building on our fundamental 理解ing of complement biology and advancing on our core therapy areas of haematology, 肾脏学, 神经学, 代谢, and cardiology. We continue to evolve into new areas where there is a great unmet need and opportunity to help people living with rare diseases and their families fully live their best lives.
Phase III/LCM Projects: refers to assets that are pivotal in Phase II/III, or that have been submitted for regulatory approval, and may include assets that are now launched in one or more major markets (removed when launched in all applicable major markets).
