Clinical study in Parkinson's disease with two unique goals: 1) Proof-of-concept of CDNF protein for disease modification; 2) Validation of clinically tested device for intracerebral drug delivery (TreatER)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

The main focus of TreatER is conducting a randomized, placebo-controlled, first-in-human, proof-of-concept, safety and efficacy study of intracerebrally administered CDNF protein therapy in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), using a neurosurgically implanted Drug Delivery System (DDS), which will also be clinically validated in the study. Thus the TreatER project has two independent goals, ei ...

Cancer treatment and monitoring through identification of circulating tumour cells and tumour related nucleic acids in blood (CANCER-ID)

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

Blood-based biomarkers such as Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs), circulating free tumor DNA (cfDNA) and microRNAs (miRNAs) have the potential to improve the development of personalized medicines for cancer patients. This is of particular importance when biopsies of the primary tumor or metastases are not accessible (e.g. at early disease stages or in minimal residual disease) or possible and the ass ...

Mechanism-Based Integrated Systems for the Prediction of Drug-Induced Liver Injury (MIP-DILI)

Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2017,

The current test systems employed by Industry are poorly predictive for Drug induced liver injury (DILI). The ‘MIP-DILI’ project will address this situation by the development of innovative preclinical test systems which are both mechanism-based and of physiological, pharmacological and pathological relevance to DILI in humans. An iterative, tiered approach with respect to test compounds, test sys ...

European Modular Education and Training Programme in Safety Sciences for Medicines (SAFESCIMET)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

Background:In current drug safety education and training in Europe, an integrative and translational approach is lacking. This shortfall has been identified by EUFEPS. The IMI (‘Strategic Research Agenda’), the FDA and the EMEA have also characterised this fact as a crucial gap in the education and training of scientists evaluating the safety of drug candidates and new medicines. Scope and objecti ...

European Medicines Research Training Network (EMTRAIN)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

EMTRAIN is an essential element for the success of the IMI Education & Training (E&T) Call Topics in Europe (current and future). It will establish a pan-European platform of excellence for education and training covering the whole life-cycle of medicines from basic research through clinical development to pharmaco-vigilance. It will underpin the successful delivery of the current and future IMI-f ...

Chemical Manufacturing Methods for the 21st Century Pharmaceutical Industries (CHEM21)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

CHEM21 is a project that will develop a broad based portfolio of sustainable technologies for green chemical intermediate manufacture aimed at the pharmaceutical industry. Initially working with the EFPIA members the collaborators of CHEM21 will analyse a number of projects that are in development to decide which the priorities are for technology development. This analysis will also be used to upd ...

New Models for Preclinical Evaluation of Drug Efficacy in Common Solid Tumours (PREDECT)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2016,

Traditional preclinical discovery methods, particularly for target validation, poorly predict drug efficacy, causing a high attrition rate in costly late-stage clinical trials. The PREDECT consortium will focus on complex but transferable, next generation in vitro and in vivo models for breast, prostate and lung cancers. Models will be investigated for their improved potential to validate novel th ...

Novel Methods leading to New Medications in Depression and Schizophrenia (NEWMEDS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

Despite dramatic advances in molecular and imaging technologies and nearly 1 5,000 articles on schizophrenia and depression (S&D) there are few novel treatments. We think this is because of three major “bottle-necks”: a lack of etiologically-driven or pathophysiologically-accurate animal models; a lack of tests that provide indication of efficacy in healthy volunteers; and the reliance of clinical ...

Prostate cancer: profiling and evaluation of ncRNA (ProspeR)

Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2012,

Annually, over 200 000 new prostate cancer cases are diagnosed in Europe. This number is expected to further increase due to widespread use of prostate specific antigen (PSA) tests on asymptomatic men and an aging population. This leads to high rate of over-detection, where most cases will never experience cancer symptoms during their lifetime. Hence, our current lack of means to predict prostate ...
