In effect, the revisions to the FD&C Act and the PHS Act are designed to encourage the use of alternatives to animal testing not eliminate animal testing in drug development. adequate to justify the proposed clinical testing.” The pre-existing statutory language did not require animal testing.

Where possible, NAM s seek to avoid the use of animal testing or at least to reduce it. However, reports drawn up as recently as June 2023 still emphasize the necessity of animal testing at some point as we are still far from understanding and reproducing all the variables present in a whole organism in an in vitro or in silico model.

These assays may include pharmacokinetic (PK) assays, which provide information on the drug’s properties, and immunogenicity assays for the detection of anti-drug antibodies (ADA), which can lead to adverse events and reduced efficacy. FDA no longer needs to require animal tests before human drug trials [Internet].

Because of this, oncology researchers may only have access to minimal existing scientific literature related to cell-based data and animal testing to predict an investigational therapy’s effect on human factors. Participants may balk at certain protocol requirements, such as extended visits for pharmacokinetic (PK) measurements.

As a result, the FDA is now required to consider alternatives to animal testing, such as in vitro , in silico , and in chemico tests and models. In this blog post, we examine several alternative approaches to animal testing and how the FDA handles the application of these methods in specific scenarios.
