How Intermediate-Size Expanded Access works in Lebanon

Lebanon's MoPH has a functional (if under-resourced) named-patient pathway for unregistered drugs.

• Country-specific NPP/personal-import form.
• Hospital or clinic attestation where required.

Typical timeline

End-to-end 2-6 weeks in most tier 3 jurisdictions. Cellular and gene therapies may require additional ethics-committee review.
