Paving the future of preclinical research beyond animal testing

Emerging approaches are expanding the tools available for more human-relevant preclinical research.

Brought to you byDrug Discovery News

Traditional animal models remain an important part of preclinical research, but species differences can limit translation of findings to human biology. New approach methodologies (NAMs), including human cell-based models, three-dimensional tissues, microphysiological systems, preserved human tissues, and computational approaches, provide complementary ways to investigate disease mechanisms and drug responses. 

This eBook explores how integrated NAMs can generate human-relevant evidence in drug development, covering emerging models, computational approaches, and key considerations for their application and adoption.

Download this eBook to learn:

  • How cardiac NAMs capture electrophysiological and tissue-level responses
  • How human brain models complement organoids, computational approaches, and animal studies  
  • Challenges in validating and integrating human-relevant preclinical models
