Specific soluble biomarkers could be a precious tool for diagnosis, prognosis and personalized management of osteoarthritic (OA) patients.
To describe the path of soluble biomarker development from discovery to clinical qualification and regulatory adoption toward OA-related biomarker qualification.
This review summarizes current guidance on the use of biomarkers in OA in clinical trials and their utility at five stages, including preclinical development and phase 1 to phase 4 trials. It also presents all the available regulatory requirements.
The path through the adoption of a specific soluble biomarker for OA is steep but is worth the challenge due to the benefit that it can provide.
特定的可溶性生物标志物可能是骨关节炎(OA)患者诊断、预后评估及个性化管理的宝贵工具。
描述可溶性生物标志物从发现到临床验证以及监管机构认可用于OA相关生物标志物鉴定的发展路径。
本综述总结了目前关于生物标志物在OA临床试验中的应用指南及其在五个阶段(包括临床前开发以及1期至4期试验)的效用。还介绍了所有可用的监管要求。
采用特定的可溶性生物标志物用于OA的道路虽艰难,但因其能带来益处,所以值得挑战。
