Learning outcome
On completion of the course, the participants should be able to:
Knowledge
- Relate how thorough characterization (molecular, immunological, imaging) of the individual patient or patient’s samples may be used for direct selection of patient treatment/care
- Explain how information from biological experiments (in vitro and animal models) can be used as a platform for designing investigations in patients
- Discuss how biological experiments may lead to drug development
- Describe how to bring a preclinical drug to phase 1, basic requirements
- Describe Phase 1 -> 3 trials
- Plan a translational study with material from a clinical trial
- Describe different studies, non-inferior vs. superiority studies
Skills

- Generate novel ideas for clinical trials from preclinical observations
- Implement research results in clinical practice
- Solve unmet clinical needs/questions by designing the clinically relevant preclinical/ biological experiments
Competences
- Integrate basic biology into clinical knowledge
- Assess ethical considerations of how to implement new molecular tools and conduct studies with patients
