abstract = {The Target Product Profile (TPP) is a tool used in industry
to guide development strategies by addressing user needs and
fostering effective communication among stakeholders.
However, they are not frequently used in academic research,
where they may be equally useful. This systematic review
aims to extract the features of accessible TPPs, to identify
commonalities and facilitate their integration in academic
research methodology.We searched peer-reviewed papers
published in English developing TPPs for different products
and health conditions in four biomedical databases.
Interrater agreement, computed on random abstract and paper
sets (Cohen's Kappa; percentage agreement with zero
tolerance) was > 0.91. We interviewed experts from industry
contexts to gain insight on the process of TPP development,
and extracted general and specific features on TPP use and
structure.138 papers were eligible for data extraction. Of
them, $92\%$ (n = 128) developed a new TPP, with $41.3\%$ (n
= 57) focusing on therapeutics. The addressed disease
categories were diverse; the largest $(47.1\%,$ n = 65) was
infectious diseases. Only one TPP was identified for several
fields, including global priorities like dementia. Our
analyses found that $56.5\%$ of papers (n = 78) was authored
by academics, and $57.8\%$ of TPPs (n = 80) featured one
threshold level of product performance. The number of TPP
features varied widely across and within product types (n =
3-44). Common features included purpose/context of use,
shelf life for drug stability and validation aspects. Most
papers did not describe the methods used to develop the TPP.
We identified aspects to be taken into account to build and
report TPPs, as a starting point for more focused
initiatives guiding use by academics.TPPs are used in
academic research mostly for infectious diseases and have
heterogeneous features. Our extraction of key features and
common structures helps to understand the tool and widen its
use in academia. This is of particular relevance for areas
of notable unmet needs, like dementia. Collaboration between
stakeholders is key for innovation. Tools to streamline
communication such as TPPs would support the development of
products and services in academia as well as industry.},
