While rare or orphan diseases are defined as those affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the United States, more than 25 million Americans are actually suffering from one of them. Due to the passage of the landmark Orphan Drug Act of 1983, together with the work of the National Organization for Rare Diseases, there is heightened awareness of and interest in these conditions among physicians, drug discovery researchers, government officials, and the health insurance industry. The FDA has approved 288 drugs and therapies to treat rare diseases, and over 1,400 products are in development and being tested for future approval since the Orphan Drug Act legislation was passed.

A rare disease is any disease or condition that affects a small percentage of the population. Many rare conditions are life-threatening or chronically debilitating, and unfortunately do not have appropriate treatments, rendering them incurable. In recent years, there has been substantial development in the area of rare disease research and its clinical applications, for instance, rare disease biology and genomics, epidemiology and preventions, early detection and screening, and diagnosis and treatment. In this context, this book consolidates the recent advances in rare disease biology and therapeutics, covering a wide spectrum of interrelated topics, and disseminates this essential knowledge in a comprehensible way to a greater scientific and clinical audience as well as patients, caregivers, and drug and device manufacturers, especially to support rare disease product development. Chapters cover such diseases as Felty’s syndrome, Löfgren’s syndrome, mesothelioma, epidermolysis bullosa, and more. This book is a valuable resource not only for medical and allied health students but also for researchers, clinical and nurse geneticists, genetic counselors, and physician assistants.
