Evidence-based dose selection of drugs in pregnant women has been lacking because of challenges in studying maternal-fetal pharmacokinetics. Hence, many drugs are administered off-label during pregnancy based on data obtained from nonpregnant women. During pregnancy, drug transporters play an important role in drug disposition along with known gestational age-dependent changes in physiology and drug-metabolizing enzymes.

Small interfering RNA (siRNA) therapeutics represent an emerging class of pharmacotherapy with the potential to address previously hard-to-treat diseases. Currently approved siRNA therapeutics include lipid nanoparticle-encapsulated siRNA and tri-N-acetylated galactosamine-conjugated siRNA. These siRNA therapeutics exhibit distinct pharmacokinetic characteristics and unique absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination (ADME) properties.

Background: Digital health innovations provide an opportunity to improve access to care, information, and quality of care during the perinatal period, a critical period of health for mothers and infants. However, research to develop perinatal digital health solutions needs to be informed by actual patient and health system needs in order to optimize implementation, adoption, and sustainability.
Objective: Our aim was to co-design a research agenda with defined research priorities that reflected health system realities and patient needs.
