One of the most important reasons for failure of placebo-controlled randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) is the lack of appropriate methodologies for detecting treatment effect (TE; difference between placebo and active treatment response) in the presence of excessively low/high levels of placebo response. Although, the higher the level of placebo response in a trial, the lower the apparent detectable TE. TE is usually estimated in a conventional analysis of an RCT as an "apparent" TE value conditional to the level of placebo response in that RCT.

Imidazoquinoxaline derivatives (imiqualines) are a new series of anticancer compounds. Two lead compounds (EAPB0203 and EAPB0503) with remarkable in vitro and in vivo activity on melanoma and T-cell lymphomas have been previously identified. The modulation of the chemical structure of the most active compound, EAPB0503, has led to the synthesis of two compounds, EAPB02302 and EAPB02303, 7 and 40 times more active than EAPB0503 against A375 human melanoma cancer cell line, respectively.

Methylphenidate (MPH) is currently used to treat children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Several extended-release (ER) formulations characterized by a dual release process were developed to improve efficacy over an extended duration. In this study, a model-based approach using literature data was developed to: 1) evaluate the most efficient pharmacokinetic (PK) model to characterize the complex PK profile of MPH ER formulations; 2) provide PK endpoint metrics for comparing ER formulations; 3) define criteria for optimizing development of ER formulations using a convolution-based model linking in vitro release, in vivo release, and hour-by-hour behavioral ratings of ADHD symptoms; and 4) define an optimized trial design for assessing the activity of MPH in pediatric populations.

Urolithins are microflora human metabolites of dietary ellagic acid derivatives. There is now a growing interest in the biological activities of these compounds. Several studies suggest that urolithins have potential antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer and anti-glycative activities.
