Translating Academic Drug Discovery Into Clinical Development: A Survey of the Awareness of Regulatory Support and Requirements Among Stakeholders in Europe.

Important discoveries by academic drug developers hold the promise of bringing innovative treatments that address unmet medical needs to the market. However, the drug development process has proved to be challenging and demanding for academic researchers, and regulatory challenges are an important barrier to implementing academic findings in clinical practice. European regulators offer varying degrees of support services to help drug developers meet regulatory standards and requirements.

Sino-European science and technology collaboration on personalized medicine: overview, trends and future perspectives.

 Personalized medicine (PM) is revolutionizing biomedical and clinical research while improving the ways healthcare is delivered. The EU is at the forefront of science and innovation in this field, increasing collaborations worldwide. This paper aims to assess the status of recent collaborations between Europe and China in PM-related science, technology and funded research.

The evolution of personalized healthcare and the pivotal role of European regions in its implementation.

Personalized medicine (PM) moves at the same pace of data and technology and calls for important changes in healthcare. New players are participating, providing impulse to PM. We review the conceptual foundations for PM and personalized healthcare and their evolution through scientific publications where a clear definition and the features of the different formulations are identifiable.

How personalised medicine will transform healthcare by 2030: the ICPerMed vision.

This commentary presents the vision of the International Consortium for Personalised Medicine (ICPerMed) on how personalised medicine (PM) will lead to the next generation of healthcare by 2030. This vision focuses on five perspectives: individual and public engagement, involvement of health professionals, implementation within healthcare systems, health-related data, and the development of sustainable economic models that allow improved therapy, diagnostic and preventive approaches as new healthcare concepts for the benefit of the public. We further identify four pillars representing transversal issues that are crucial for the successful implementation of PM in all perspectives.
