  • Introduction to Safety Pharmacology
    What is Safety Pharmacology? 2 What is Safety Pharmacology? Safety pharmacology is a branch of pharmacology specializing in detecting and investigating potential undesirable pharmacodynamic effects of new chemical entities (NCEs) on physiological functions in relation to exposure in the therapeutic range and above. Safety pharmacology studies are required to be completed prior to human exposure (i.e., Phase I clinical trials), and regulatory guidance is provided in ICH S7A and other documents. Key Concepts of Safety Pharmacology 4 Systems Primary organ systems (so-called core battery systems) are: • Central Nervous System • Cardiovascular System • Respiratory System Secondary organ systems of interest are: • Gastrointestinal System • Renal System Key aims of safety pharmacology The aims of nonclinical safety pharmacology evaluations are: • To protect Phase I clinical trial volunteers from acute adverse effects of drugs • To protect patients (including patients participating in Phase II and III clinical trials) • To minimize risks of failure during drug development and post-marketing phases due to undesirable pharmacodynamic effects The following key issues have to be considered within safety pharmacology: • The detection of adverse effects liability (hazard identification) • Investigation of the mechanism of effect (risk assessment) • Mitigation strategies (risk management) • Calculating a projected safety margin • Implications for clinical safety monitoring 7 Pharmacology vs. Toxicology? Pharmacology - the study of the action of xenobiotics,

  • Handbook Non-Clinical Safety Testing
    UNICEF/UNDP/World Bank/WHO Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR) UNICEF/UNDP/World Bank/WHO Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR) HANDBOOK NON-CLINICAL SAFETY TESTING This Handbook on Non-clinical Safety Testing is designed to serve as an aid for scientists who wish to undertake non-clinical safety testing for regulatory purposes during product development. It has been developed as part of a significant and wide- ranging technology transfer and capacity building programme in the area of pre-clin- ical product development for disease endemic countries. The Non-clinical Safety Testing Handbook was produced by a Scientific Working Group (SWG) on pre-clinical issues, convened by the UNICEF/UNDP/World Bank/WHO Special Programme for Research & Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR) and consisting of independent scientific specialists from around the world. The Handbook is broadly based on current safety testing guidelines including those of the Organisation for Eco- nomic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH). The Handbook will provide scientists and laboratories in disease endemic countries with the necessary technical aid for planning and implementing non-clinical safety testing programmes. The Handbook attempts to highlight the differences between syn- thetic chemical drug, vaccine and traditional herbal (botanical) medicine development programmes. TDR gratefully acknowledges the participation and support of all those involved in the production of this Handbook.

  • Recent Efforts to Elucidate the Scientific Validity of Animal-Based
    Bailey and Balls BMC Medical Ethics (2019) 20:16 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12910-019-0352-3 DEBATE Open Access Recent efforts to elucidate the scientific validity of animal-based drug tests by the pharmaceutical industry, pro-testing lobby groups, and animal welfare organisations Jarrod Bailey1* and Michael Balls2 Abstract Background: Even after several decades of human drug development, there remains an absence of published, substantial, comprehensive data to validate the use of animals in preclinical drug testing, and to point to their predictive nature with regard to human safety/toxicity and efficacy. Two recent papers, authored by pharmaceutical industry scientists, added to the few substantive publications that exist. In this brief article, we discuss both these papers, as well as our own series of three papers on the subject, and also various views and criticisms of lobby groups that advocate the animal testing of new drugs. Main text: We argue that there still remains no published evidence to support the current regulatory paradigm of animal testing in supporting safe entry to clinical trials. In fact, the data in these recent studies, as well as in our own studies, support the contention that tests on rodents, dogs and monkeys provide next to no evidential weight to the probability of there being a lack of human toxicity, when there is no apparent toxicity in the animals. Conclusion: Based on these data, and in particular on this finding, it must be concluded that animal drug tests are therefore not fit for their stated purpose. At the very least, it is now incumbent on—and we very much encourage—the pharmaceutical industry and its regulators to commission, conduct and/or facilitate further independent studies involving the use of substantial proprietary data.
