A methodological framework for drug development in rare diseases. The CRESim program: Epilogue and perspectives

Based on the ‘European Child-Rare-Euro-Simulation’ (CRESim) project, this article proposes a generalizable strategy utilizing datasets analysis in combination with modeling and simulation, in order to optimize the clinical drug development applied in the field of rare diseases. The global process includes: (i) the simulation of a realistic virtual population of patients (modeled from a real dataset of patients), (ii) the modeling of disease...
