Rare disease research operates under conditions of extreme complexity. These pressures are driving new approaches to evidence generation, trial design and regulatory thinking that could influence the future of clinical development.
In the wake of recent government policy aimed at actively replacing animal models in drug discovery, we consider a possible solution to the translational shortfalls of current cellular methodologies for neurodegenerative disease.
For years, AI drug discovery has been judged on benchmark performance. Now, a set of studies shows what happens when those designs are made and tested in preclinical settings.
Dr Aaron Wenger reveals how improvements in long-read sequencing technology is enabling the elucidation of complex disease mechanisms for targeted and effective treatments for rare diseases.
Designing gene control from scratch is becoming possible. SynGenSys is using computational design to create synthetic promoters for advanced therapies.
