State of rare disease nonprofits in the US
As our first step to building the ROADMAP, we set out to build a comprehensive list of all rare disease nonprofit organizations in the US. A team of volunteers spent seven months extracting data from the websites of these organizations, gathering basic information such as their year of founding, name & contact information of founders, information on the organization’s resources (conference, research agenda, biobank, registry, natural history study, etc.), whether the rare disease has treatment guidelines, or whether it is known that it is caused by a genetic mutation, is there any mention of drug repurposing, and if so - which drug(s) were pursued, or is there any mention of partnerships or collaborations with other organizations. As a result of this exercise, 711 organizations were confirmed as rare disease nonprofit organizations in the US with active websites as of 12/2021. Because this data is publicly available through organizations' websites and separate from the ROADMAP survey, we have made available open-source here. Click the link below to download the file.
