In the absence of any in-depth study in the current international scientific literature, this review aimed to provide an overview of the definition and classification of DTx and the main issues relating to clinical studies, ethical implications and gray areas in the international regulatory processes, eventually providing an in-depth look focused on the American and European regulatory landscape.

Since the great potential of DTx will be only exploited when there is an appropriate regulatory framework which frame and define the field, the implementation of a stable regulatory system complementing conventional drug prescriptions is needed as soon as possible. Besides, TDx-specific research ethics, patient-centered care, as well as training and education of health professionals need strengthened and consolidated interprofessional cooperation in order to address the new skills, competences and challenges posed by DTx-related practices.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":37998,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Interprofessional Education and Practice","volume":"32 ","pages":"Article 100656"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49874080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
