http://www.alzheimer-europe.org/Research/PharmaCog

Project aiming to tackle bottlenecks in Alzheimer''''s disease research and drug discovery by developing and validating new tools to test candidate drugs for the treatment of symptoms and disease in a faster and more sensitive way. They will provide the tools needed to define more precisely the potential of a drug candidate, reduce the development time of new medicines and thus accelerate the approvals of promising new medicines. By bringing together databases of previously conducted clinical trials and combining the results from blood tests, brain scans and behavioral tests, the scientists will develop a ''''signature'''' that gives more accurate information on the progression of the disease and the effect of candidate drugs than current methods do. The scientists will conduct parallel studies in laboratory models, healthy volunteers and patients in order to better predict good new drugs as early as possible. This will enable them, for instance, to find out how memory loss in Alzheimer''''s disease can be simulated in healthy volunteers, for example with sleep deprivation or drugs that temporarily affect the memory, in order to test the effect of candidate-medicines early in the drug development process.

https://sites.google.com/site/p2tconsortium/

A three-member pharmaceutical industry consortium that aims to provide a new platform to improve access to information about clinical trials for patients and providers. The platform aims to enhance the existing clinicaltrials.gov by providing more detailed and patient-friendly information about available trials and embedding a machine-readable target health profile to improve the ability of healthcare software to match individual health profiles with applicable clinical trials. Using clinicaltrials.gov as its foundation and Eli Lilly''''s Application Programming Interface (API), the consortium is focused on creating an open platform to make this data more amenable to patients and providers, as well as creating an opportunity to integrate a patient''''s electronic health record into the clinical trial matching service. This feature will allow patients to search for trials using their own Blue Button data. The following features are planned add-ons to clinicaltrials.gov: * Target Profile is a machine readable query, that can be executed against an electronic file (or record) with patient health data such as an Electronic Health Record (EHR), an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) or Personally Controlled Health Record (PCHR) * Augmented Content is public, IRB approved information about the study that has not been published on clinicaltrials.gov, and that is shared with / targeted for patients with a matching Target Profile. The following are the incremental goals of the consortium: * Advancement of the Lilly API platform to support read/write interaction and additional data objects and information. * The initial 3 sponsor organizations - Lilly, Pfizer and Novartis - will upload Target Profiles for a select set of clinical trials. A Target Profile is a machine interpretable description of the characteristics of patients who may qualify for that trial i.e. a query that can be executed against a patient''''s electronic health record or personal health record. Additionally, sponsors of clinical research studies will also be able to upload Augmented Content to the Lilly Platform to supplement information on clinicaltrials.gov with additional, patient-focused information about the study, e.g., a study brochure and practical information on how to contact investigational sites. * A matching service, developed by Corengi, will compare Target Profiles to a de-dentified personally controlled health record (PCHR), represented by patient''''s Blue Button Plus CCDA XML document. * Integration into a patient community platform from Avado for providing the patient PCHR and presenting the results of the match service. The patient will be able to explore the respective matching studies for additional information and next steps such as contacting a nearby investigator clinic or hospital. The first demo of the prototype was made available on June 2014, built on a database of anonymized patient health records from different clinical research studies sponsored by Lilly, Novartis, and Pfizer.

http://neuroscienceblueprint.nih.gov/

Collaborative framework that includes the NIH Office of the Director and the 14 NIH Institutes and Centers that support research on the nervous system. By pooling resources and expertise, the Blueprint identifies cross-cutting areas of research, and confronts challenges too large for any single Institute or Center. The Blueprint makes collaboration a day-to-day part of how the NIH does business in neuroscience, complementing the basic missions of Blueprint partners. During each fiscal year, the partners contribute a small percentage of their funds to a common pool. Since the Blueprint's inception in 2004, this pool has comprised less than 1 percent of the total neuroscience research budget of the partners. In 2009, the Blueprint Grand Challenges were launched to catalyze research with the potential to transform our basic understanding of the brain and our approaches to treating brain disorders. * The Human Connectome Project is an effort to map the connections within the healthy brain. It is expected to help answer questions about how genes influence brain connectivity, and how this in turn relates to mood, personality and behavior. The investigators will collect brain imaging data, plus genetic and behavioral data from 1,200 adults. They are working to optimize brain imaging techniques to see the brain's wiring in unprecedented detail. * The Grand Challenge on Pain supports research to understand the changes in the nervous system that cause acute, temporary pain to become chronic. The initiative is supporting multi-investigator projects to partner researchers in the pain field with researchers in the neuroplasticity field. * The Blueprint Neurotherapeutics Network is helping small labs develop new drugs for nervous system disorders. The Network provides research funding, plus access to millions of dollars worth of services and expertise to assist in every step of the drug development process, from laboratory studies to preparation for clinical trials. Project teams across the U.S. have received funding to pursue drugs for conditions from vision loss to neurodegenerative disease to depression. Since its inception in 2004, the Blueprint has supported the development of new resources, tools and opportunities for neuroscientists. For example, the Blueprint supports several training programs to help students pursue interdisciplinary areas of neuroscience, and to bring students from underrepresented groups into the neurosciences. The Blueprint also funds efforts to develop new approaches to teaching neuroscience through K-12 instruction, museum exhibits and web-based platforms. From fiscal years 2007 to 2009, the Blueprint focused on three major themes of neuroscience - neurodegeneration, neurodevelopment, and neuroplasticity. These efforts enabled unique funding opportunities and training programs, and helped establish new resources including the Blueprint Non-Human Primate Brain Atlas.

Consortium to develop evidence supporting the use of imaging Total Kidney Volume (TKV) as a prognostic biomarker that predicts the progression of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) to select patients likely to respond to therapy into clinical trials. It aims to replace the currently used measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Scientists will use the data collected to develop a disease progression model that will evaluate the relationship between TKV and the known complications of ADPKD, including rate of loss of kidney function, hypertension, gross hematuria, kidney stones, urinary tract infections, development of end-stage renal disease, and mortality. These analyses will be used to support the regulatory qualification of TKV as an accepted measure for assessing the progression of ADPKD in clinical trials in which new therapies are tested. PKDOC has the following goals: # Develop standard clinical data elements and definitions that are specific to ADPKD # Create a database of aggregated data from existing multiple, longitudinal, and well-characterized research registries maintained over decades by the leading institutions in ADPKD clinical investigation # Advance and harmonize the missions of regulatory agencies by creating tools that help with the evaluation of new pharmaceutical compounds # Develop a quantitative disease progression model to examine the linkage between TKV and disease outcomes
