2014 - Human translational medicine: a key bridge for the development of new drugs for severe asthma, COPD and ILD

Despite remarkable progresses in the definition of cellular, biochemical and molecular biology pathways in the pathogenesis of Severe Asthma, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD) and Interstitial Lung Disorders (ILDs), there is still a substantial unmet need for new drugs able to control and/or change the natural history of these diseases. This Seminar intended to underline the key role of a side-to-side collaboration between clinicians, scientists, bioinformaticians and statisticians in the comprehension of pathological processes underlying different respiratory disorders. It provided a framework to improve the ability to identify potential pharmacological targets for the development of innovative drugs.
