Call | Clinical
research for the validation of biomarkers and/or diagnostic medical devices |
| Description
of call "Clinical research for the validation of biomarkers and/or diagnostic medical devices" | Biomarkers are used in clinical practice to describe both normal and pathological conditions. They can also have a prognostic or a predictive power. They are therefore increasingly used in medicine and many potential biomarkers are proposed every year. Only a few of them are however validated for use in a clinical research setting. Such validation implies the demonstration of a link to a pertinent clinical endpoint or process, as well as a robust and appropriate analytical method. The clinical validation of biomarkers will be increasingly important for the development of new diagnostics, and this is a research area where many small European companies are active. Improved clinical decisions should lead to better health outcomes while contributing to the sustainability of the health care system. |
