Can Nonclinical Repolarization Assays Predict the Results of Clinical Thorough QT Studies? Results from a Research Consortium.

The strengths and limitations of three nonclinical repolarization assays used to define the risk of clinical drug-induced delayed ventricular repolarization (a surrogate marker of the rare but potentially lethal arrhythmia Torsades de Pointes) were compared during a retrospective analysis of an anonymized database of 150 ...

Can We Panelize Seizure?

Seizure liability remains a significant cause of attrition in drug discovery and development, leading to loss of competitiveness, delays and increased costs. Current detection methods rely on observations made in in vivo studies intended to support clinical trials, such as tremors or other abnormal movements. These signs ...

Cardiac contractility: Correction strategies applied to telemetry data from a HESI-sponsored consortium

Heart rate correction methods are frequently used when analyzing data collected during the drug development process to better understand the QT interval. There is variability in this methodology and the optimal heart rate correction formula is often debated. This paper details a study that explored the ...
