[V6-S4] New Drug Development Approaches to Realize Precision Medicine (Registry Study, Platform Trial)

Session Chair(s)

Precision Medicine, which provides optimal treatment for each disease subtype, has been proposed from the viewpoint of providing appropriate treatment individually tailored and patients first. In a conventional clinical trial, basically, a single study treatment / group / disease is a subject, and a more efficient approach is required to evaluate multiple treatment candidates for each more detailed subtype. In this session, new approaches in Japan and overseas in therapeutic areas such as oncology, neuroscience, etc, will be introduced about implementation of disease registry including Master Key Project in Japan, new designs using the Bayesian statistics such as Platform design, consortium building, etc. and will be discussed future directions and challenges.
