Biomarkers will be critical to developing precision medicine for Alzheimer’s disease. Although a few are out there, phosphorylated tau (P-tau) may enable even earlier and more accurate detection, according to Eli Lilly-associated researchers speaking at the Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s Disease (CTAD) virtual conference in early November.

Today, refined versions of these human challenge studies have become standard practice in testing vaccines for vector-borne diseases (e.g., yellow fever, malaria, and dengue), evaluating new drugs or treatments, and studying pathogenesis, the process by which a disease develops. Why are challenge trials becoming more popular?

From an early age, I’ve been passionate about finding cures for difficult-to-treat diseases. I accepted and I’ve been CEO ever since; our goal, from the beginning, was to pioneer new ways to diagnose, treat and prevent neurodegenerative diseases. That’s missing the point – we have learned how to slow the disease.

They had “seen no evidence of [graft-versus-host disease] in any patient,” wrote surgeon Steven A. For every 5,000 drug compounds tested in mice, five move into human studies. None of them were beneficial, and “eight of these compounds ultimately failed in clinical trials, which together involved thousands of people.”
