Biomarkers in Rare Diseases

Published by International Journal of Molecular Sciences

BiomarkersRare diseases

The focus of this article is to provide a broad platform for original research and state-of-the-art reviews on novel or established proteomic, metabolomic, or transcriptomic biomarkers that contribute to the understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms of rare diseases and/or that can be used for the diagnosis and prognosis of disease and individuals’ responses to therapies. The collection includes eight original research papers, one commentary, and six review articles from groups investigating biomarkers for a diverse range of rare diseases.

Predictive biomarker-based assay development in the context of drug development and lifecycle

Published by EMA

EMAPredictive Biomarkers

The proposed concept paper is intended to be developed into a guideline which will replace the reflection paper on co-development of pharmacogenomic biomarkers and assays in the context of drug development. The guideline will provide recommendations on the interface between predictive biomarker-based assays including CDx, and the development and lifecycle of a medicine.
