Considering the use of animal models in drug development

Drug Discovery World

Professor Andy Whiting , CEO of Nevrargenics, asks whether animal models should be used as the default regulatory requirement and explores the times to use them. Animal models (AMs) have generally been seen as useful for drug development and biomedical research for many years. Are AMs always necessary and unavoidable?

Distinguishing the Roles of Preclinical vs. Clinical CROs in Clinical Research

Vial

Clinical CROs in Clinical Research Randomized clinical trials are the gold-standard of evidence-based medicine, representing the culmination of the long, arduous drug development pipeline. The two broadest categories of drug development can be separated into the preclinical and clinical research stages. over this period.

Rapid delivery of toxicological material

Drug Target Review

The current landscape of protein drug development is characterised by accelerated timelines where new drugs are approved in months rather than years. Hence, in many cases an earlier IND may be prevented by the timely provision of representative Drug Substance (DS) to execute such toxicology studies.
