Expanded Access Program (EAP) in Qatar

About Expanded Access Program (EAP)

Structured programs offering access to investigational drugs outside of clinical trials.

How Expanded Access Program (EAP) works in Qatar

Qatar's MoPH permits unregistered drug import under a named-patient pathway with physician and MoPH approval; Hamad Medical Corp frequently sponsors.

Patients in Qatar seeking access under Expanded Access Program (EAP) typically follow this flow: a licensed physician in Qatar issues the prescription and clinical justification, the regulator reviews and authorises, and an authorised operator coordinates import.

Documents required in Qatar

• Physician prescription and clinical-justification letter.
• Patient identification and consent.
• Country-specific NPP/personal-import form.
• Hospital or clinic attestation where required.

Typical timeline

End-to-end 2-6 weeks in most tier 2 jurisdictions. Cellular and gene therapies may require additional ethics-committee review.
