Rare diseases are difficult to diagnose and treat. There are many barriers to a timely diagnosis. Patients and their families often endure a long journey involving specialty doctors, tests, and misdiagnoses. Focusing on these uncommon and underserved medical conditions, Sanofi’s Rare Diseases franchise is committed to offering sustainable, potentially transformative healthcare options and aspires to achieve better care for rare.

Even when a treatment has been proven tolerated and effective, Sanofi continues to research therapies that will improve the standard of care. This means building on its scientific understanding and striving to develop more therapies with the potential to improve the lives of those living with rare diseases. This includes research in other nephrological, neurologic, metabolic and neuromuscular rare diseases.

We pledge to continue to advance sustainable access to better treatments, deliver the standard of care to improve lives, transform the diagnostic odyssey, and build meaningful connections with our rare diseases community.
