Conclusions and recommendations for the implementation of P3PT based on community feedback analysis

Area Conclusion/recommendation Benefit
P3PT implementation Careful and stepwise implementation recommended Widespread acceptance more likely
Initial preclinical multicenter studies should be performed by experienced centers, ideally having a long-standing history of collaboration Swift and exact estimation of P3PT benefit under practical conditions
P3PT organization and governance Centralized study governance and central study protocol Clinical-trial like design, enhanced result comparability
Core endpoints addressed by all centers according to P3PT protocol Enhanced statistical power and higher predictability for primary endpoints
Additional: individual endpoints addressed by single centers with outstanding competencies Broad spectrum of translationally endpoints addressable (but no benefit for study power)
P3PT animal models Use of multiple models, if applicable Better representation of patient population (polypharmacy, age, sex, comorbidities)
Use of large animal models, if available Reflecting gyrencephalic brain structure, closer similarity to human situation
P3PT quality assurance Further enhancing awareness for those (might require institutional support [9]) Increasing scientific rigor and result comparability, reducing divergences in relevance acknowledgment throughout the community
Strict application of quality assurance criteria Enhanced result comparability and relevance
P3PT financing and result publication Establishing and recruiting of global funds International and -continental collaboration facilitated, reduced financial burden for national public funding authorities
Early enrolment of high-quality academic-industry collaborations Timely involvement of key stakeholders, preventing failure of clinical trials, bolstering financial resources for P3PT
Establishing centralized writing committees More efficient workflow, comparability to large scale clinical trials
