The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is one of the most common organs affected by adverse drug reactions. While it is essential to assess GI toxicity early in drug development, traditional toxicity assays using model cell lines do not accurately reflect the human gut. Stem cell-based technologies that recreate the human intestine enable researchers to better evaluate drug-induced GI toxicity during candidate drug screening. In this webinar, experts from Altis Biosystems will discuss the latest advances of GI toxicity assessment empowered by stem cell and organ-on-a-chip technology.
Topics to be covered
- Challenges of assessing GI risk in drug development
- Assessing GI toxicity using an in vitro intestinal stem cell model
