Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite submissions to this Special Issue of the Journal of Clinical Medicine entitled “Personalised and Precision Pharmacotherapy: Data-Driven Therapeutic Optimisation in Real-World Clinical Practice”.
Clinical decision-making increasingly takes place in settings marked by multimorbidity, polypharmacy and patient heterogeneity. In routine practice, standard dosing recommendations and guideline-based approaches often fall short of addressing the complexity of real patients. At the same time, growing access to clinical data, together with advances in pharmacokinetics, therapeutic drug monitoring, modelling approaches and clinical decision-support tools, offers new possibilities to individualise drug therapy.
This Special Issue aims to highlight clinically relevant, data-informed approaches that support therapeutic optimisation in real-world care. We welcome original research, reviews and implementation-oriented studies focusing on personalised pharmacotherapy, including dose individualisation, exposure–response relationships, drug–drug and drug–disease interactions, and precision strategies in patients with complex clinical profiles.
By bringing together methodological insight and clinical experience, this Special Issue seeks to advance practical and patient-centred approaches to pharmacotherapy in contemporary medicine.
