Preclinical Research

  • Preclinical Research
  • Since 2004, the average cost of bringing a new drug to market has increased from $800 million to about $2.6 billion, without, for the most part, shorter development time

    We want novel therapies to be approved fast, while being safe for us. Regulatory agencies around the world strive to balance the critical elements of speed and safety; at the same time, a rigorous review process is a must. 

    In Issue 33 of The Altascientist, we explore how a comprehensive, end-to-end integrated approach to drug development for central nervous system (CNS) therapeutics can take you seamlessly from lead candidate selection to market. 

    Engaging at the outset with a fully integrated and experienced drug development partner can ensure safety, with timely data sharing at every step of the drug development plan, and facilitate agile, flexible decision-making and planning.

    With detailed case studies, study considerations, and more, this Issue covers:

    • preclinical safety and toxicity testing,
    • formulation and manufacturing,
    • early-phase clinical trials, and
    • bioanalysis.
