Translational animal models of disease in drug discovery and development

International Conference on Pathology

Xinkang Wang

ScientificTracks Abstracts: J Clin Exp Pathol

DOI: 10.4172/2161-0681.S1.002

Abstract
Animal models of diseases play a pivotal role in drug discovery and development, ranging from proof of concept studies such as target validation, efficacy, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic correlation as well as drug safety and tolerability assessment. Since considerable variables and differences exist between animal models and humans, none of the animal models fully and authentically represents the human biology and disease pathology. Partly due to the same reasons, enormous therapeutic agents demonstrated to be effective in preclinical models have failed in clinical studies in regards to efficacy, safety and tolerability. This presentation is aimed to address translational gap that emanates from lack of congruency between preclinical models and humans, via systematic analyses and �case studies� exemplifying animal models of disease from translational medicine perspectives. The generic nature of �translational model� principles and their impacts on pathological research and successful drug development are highlighted and discussed.
Biography
