TBI-Reporter/NIHR HRC in Brain Injury: Industry Workshop on De-risking Drug and Technology Innovation in Traumatic Brain Injury
TBI is a leading cause of death and disability, costs the UK economy over £10 billion, and the global economy over $500 billion, annually. Outcomes from TBI are poor – even with “mild” TBI, 30% of patients show incomplete recovery at six months post-injury. The scope for improvement (and potential market opportunity) is substantial. While many past trials have failed, the substantial new knowledge provides a timely opportunity to address this issue.
