The statement is also false, because there is, at least, a dozen plus molecules that can efficiently treat TBI-INDUCED <em>conditions<\/em>. So why has the development of efficient pharmacotherapies to improve outcomes <em>in humans<\/em> been so challenging? There are several reasons for the 100% failure rate in clinical trials (<a href=\"http:\/\/neurometix.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Agoston-2021-COVID-19-and-Traumatic-Brain-Inju.pdf\">Agoston, 2021<\/a>). The most common identifiable cause is the failure to identify the TBI-induced pathobiological changes, i.e. the disease endophenotypes. Without knowing the disease endophenotype, it is impossible to identify the molecular targets for pharmacological intervention. Another equally important cause of the current failure is the inability to identify the onset and temporal pattern of TBI-induced pathobiological change(s). Without such information, the therapeutic window for targeted pharmacological intervention cannot be identified. In addition to these fundamental errors, most studies are using clinically irrelevant animal modeling, resulting in low level of translatability.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-94bc5a8 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"94bc5a8\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-05671db\" data-id=\"05671db\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6713dd0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"6713dd0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About The current dogma is: \u201cThere is no treatment for traumatic brain injury (TBI)\u201d.
