TMD/TMJ Arthroplasty Biomarkers: Narrowing the Gap between Currently Available and Urgently Needed

Ø Poor predictability of treatment outcomes as a main challenge:

Ø Inter-individual variability of TMD severity and clinical manifestations Ø Patient’s sex and other treatment outcome modifiers

Ø The need for diagnostic and prognostic TMJ Arthroplasty biomarkers:

Ø Intention-to-Treat (ITT) subpopulation for TMJ replacement Ø Predictive assessment of real-world device performance Ø Prevention and diagnostic/therapeutic management of adverse outcomes

Ø The promise of new (in silico) evidentiary approaches for facilitating Precision/Stratified Medicine applications to TMD/TMJ Arthroplasty

q GWAS hold great promise for advancing our understanding of the genetic contributions …, risk factors for susceptibility and prognosis, and the development of individualized dental [and craniofacial] medicine. q …however, we are still in the early stages of the translation of genomics to clinic [and regulatory] practice (Kim et al 2012).

Biomarker-based Evidentiary Approaches to TMD/TMJ Arthroplasty

ü Biological and clinical plausibility of study endpoints and biomarkers: ü Better understanding of molecular/mechanistic underpinnings ü Improved pre-selection of biomarker candidates for qualification and validation steps ü Clinical and regulatory relevance of putative TMD/TMJ Arthroplasty biomarkers: ü New druggable targets for different TMDs ü Well-defined target subpopulations (eg, ITT for TMJ Replacement) ü Proactive surveillance of adverse events in TMJ Arthroplasty ü Less burdensome and more effective preclinical testing of TMJ devices ü Cost/time-efficient solutions for TMD-related Precision Medicine applications (eg, biomarkers for individuals and sex/race-stratified subpopulations)

ü The guiding role of EPIDEMIOLOGIC EVIDENCE for effective discovery of biomarkers applicable to various subpopulations with TMD/TMJ Arthroplasty
