General Objectives:
To build consensus and synergies to address the regulatory,
ethical and technical issues associated with the registration of
rare disease patients in Europe.
To explore the feasibility of registration of minimum data set
common to all rare disease
To elaborate possible policy scenarios for EU policy on rare
disease patients registries
To prepare the feasibility of a future EU registry platform (legal
basis, governance framework, option for sustainability, …).

WP8 – Current needs of EU registration on RD and platform
facilities serving registration need
A survey to be conducted through existing registries, in order to collect
information on existing registration initiatives within the interests not
only of academicians and private companies, but also of the patients.
Addressed aspects: scope and aims, legal base for collection of data,
measures for data protection, organisational and financial support,
number of patients registered, unmet needs, data collected, means of
collection and quality of data and data sources.
A survey, conducted by EURORDIS, will also address experience and
expectations of patients organizations regarding patient registries run
by academic groups, industry or public administrations.
The information collected will be used to identify the services necessary
to improve the quality, promote and facilitate the use of the registry
platform and to report appropriately to the public and other
stakeholders.

WP4 - Legal basis
• This WP will assess the current transposition of the Data
Protection Directive and in particular the transposition of
Art. 8 of the Directive,
• will consult EUCERD Member and other national policy
makers and
• will set out the elements (e.g.: scope of data collection, the
nature of data to be collected, the data sources to be used)
to generate a policy option (best practice model) which can
be assured and implemented by national policy makers /
institutions.

WP6 - Common data set and disease specific data collection
• This WP defines a common data set with correlated
Standard Operating Procedures, which is independent
of the registered rare disease, and of other disease-
specific modules, in order to provide information
consistent with the agreed scope of the registers which
is useful for public health actions and for other aims.

WP7 - Data quality, validation and data sources integration
This WP assesses:
a) the internal and external validity of existing data as well as the use of
primary or secondary data sources and completeness of follow-up.
b) the need for performing an external quality control scheme to
monitor compliance of platform registration activities to inclusion
criteria
c) the need for the transnational pooling of collections on RD patients,
in order to attain sufficient statistical power for clinical and public
health investigations
c) the necessary data source integration and completeness of reporting
to get reliable results with respect to different aims and data analysis
and ways to assess it.
d) the opportunities offered by the collaboration of patients and POs in
increasing the completeness of case registration.

WP5 - Policy Scenarios on the scope aims, governance and
sustainability of registration of RD patients
• This WP addresses the scope, aims, governance and
ownership of RD patient registration and develop possible
policy scenarios.
• Consensus will be build toward an agreed “common data set”
for all RD registries and databases
• Different options ensuring the long-term sustainability of the
RD registers without affecting the independence and scientific
value of the registration activities and products will also be
assessed.
• This work will be conducted by EURORDIS – ISS and all
project partners - in close relation with the EUCERD, and it will
support a specific workshops on “registries and data bases”.
