Part 2 In the previous article in this series on ADAs, we discussed the historical background of antibody discovery and research. We also discussed the significance of ADAs in modern drug development. In this instalment, we will be getting into the weeds of immunology and how ADAs play a role in it. So, tighten your …
Part 1 Anti-Drug Antibody Analysis is widespread in Clinical Trials across all phases and in the next series of articles, we will introduce you to what they are, their functions, roles, historical development of ADA discovery and the future of research with ADAs. Anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) are immunoglobulins (these are protein substances that help defend …
Introduction Neurodegenerative diseases encompass a group of disorders characterized by neuronal loss and progressive degeneration of the nervous system, posing a significant global health challenge with increasing incidence rates (Sumera et al., 2023). These diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Multiple sclerosis, are multifactorial conditions often associated with gene mutations …
Introduction Overview of the significance of surgical robots. Since hemorrhagic shock and polytrauma are the most common causes of main fatality in conflict, the military needed to provide skilled surgical care based on damage control surgery as soon as possible following major trauma. Surgical robots have come a long way from their use in entertainment …

Clinical trials are becoming increasingly important in society because they provide unbiased evidence about treatment effectiveness and assist in determining their cost-effectiveness. However, they face challenges, including the need for clearer communication of their benefits to the general public. Despite these challenges, clinical trials are critical for evidence-based medicine and healthcare reform, and they must be …

Introduction In medical research and clinical trials data management and analysis are key to treatment efficacy and safety. Clinical Data Management (CDM) and Clinical Data Science (CDS) are two related but distinct fields. While they share the same goal to collect, organize and analyze clinical data they have different approaches, methodologies and outcomes. Knowing the …

DEFINITIONS Real World Evidence (RWE) is the clinical evidence obtained from the analysis of Real World Data (RWD) revealing the possible risks and benefits associated with an investigational product thereby confirming or nullifying the safety and efficacy status of such investigational/medical product. As the name implies Real World Experience uses real world data generated from …
Precision medicine represents a shift away from the one-size-fits-all approach towards tailored treatments and focuses on interventions that take into account an individual’s unique genetic makeup, lifestyle, and environment. While precision medicine has the potential to improve patient outcomes and accelerate clinical trials, it requires the participation of a diverse and representative sample. Diversity ensures …

Over the last two centuries, drug discovery usually begins in the chemical or pharmacological laboratory, also known as the ‘wet lab’ and is carried out by human agents, usually by the extraction of specific active compounds with hypothesised therapeutic properties from plants or animals. It could also involve the artificial synthesis of novel compounds or …
