Abstract
Advanced therapies are expected to play a crucial role in supporting repair after injury, halting the degeneration of musculoskeletal tissue to enable and promote physical activity. Despite advancements, the progress in developing advanced therapies in orthopaedics lags behind specialties like oncology, since innovative regenerative treatment strategies fall short of their expectations in musculoskeletal clinical trials. Researchers should focus on understanding the mechanism of action behind the investigated target before conducting clinical trials. Strategic research networks are needed that not only enhance scientific exchange among like-minded researchers but need to include early on commercial views, companies and venture perspectives, regulatory insights and reimbursement perspectives. Only in such collaborations essential roadblocks towards clinical trials and go-to-patients be overcome.
期刊介绍:
EFORT Open Reviews publishes high-quality instructional review articles across the whole field of orthopaedics and traumatology. Commissioned, peer-reviewed articles from international experts summarize current knowledge and practice in orthopaedics, with the aim of providing systematic coverage of the field. All articles undergo rigorous scientific editing to ensure the highest standards of accuracy and clarity.
This continuously published online journal is fully open access and will provide integrated CME. It is an authoritative resource for educating trainees and supports practising orthopaedic surgeons in keeping informed about the latest clinical and scientific advances.
One print issue containing a selection of papers from the journal will be published each year to coincide with the EFORT Annual Congress.
EFORT Open Reviews is the official journal of the European Federation of National Associations of Orthopaedics and Traumatology (EFORT) and is published in partnership with The British Editorial Society of Bone & Joint Surgery.
