Drug Safety Evaluation (4th Edition) – eBook

Drug Safety Evaluation, 4th Edition (PDF) – Pharmaceutical Development Series

Comprehensive and practical guide presenting a roadmap for safety assessment as an integral part of the development of drugs and therapeutics

This Drug Safety Evaluation, Fourth Edition maintains the central objective of presenting an all-inclusive practical guide for those who are responsible for ensuring the safety of drugs and biologics to patients, healthcare providers, those involved in the manufacture of medicinal products, and all those who need to understand how the safety of these products is evaluated and shepherding valuable candidates to market.

Individual chapters address specific approaches to evaluation hazards, including problems encountered and their solutions. Also covered are the scientific and philosophical bases for evaluating specific concerns (e.g., development toxicity, carcinogenicity, etc.) to provide both understanding and guidance for approaching the new problems that have come to face both our society and the new challenges they brought.

The many changes in regulatory requirements, pharmaceutical development, technology, and the effects of Covid on our society and science have required both extensive revisions to every chapter and the addition of four new chapters.

Specific sample topics covered in Drug Safety Evaluation include:

• An appendix that provides an up to date guide to CROs for conducting studies
• Sources of information for consideration in study and program design and in safety evaluation
• Mechanisms and endpoints of drug toxicity, pilot toxicity testing in drug safety evaluation, and repeat dose toxicity
• The drug development process and the global pharmaceutical marketplace and regulation of human pharmaceutical safety
• Electronic records, reporting and submission, screens in safety and hazard assessment, and formulations, routes, and dosage regimens
• Genotoxicity, QSAR tools for drug safety, toxicogenomics, nonrodent animal studies, and developmental and reproductive toxicity testing

Drug Safety Evaluation was explicitly written for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, including scientists, consultants, and academics, to show a utilitarian yet scientifically valid path to the everyday challenges of safety evaluation and the problem-solving that is required in drug discovery and development.
