There has been an enormous growth of interest in the field of toxicologic pathology and particularly on its impact on nonclinical safety assessment in global drug development and in the environment. Toxicologic pathologists play an important role in detecting test article-related adverse effects by characterizing morphologic changes in animal tissues and/or body fluids under prescribed study conditions or less clearly defined conditions in the environment and in the interpretation of these findings relative to human risk. In fact, pathology evaluation is often the single most important decision-making factor in nonclinical safety assessments as 80% of drug candidate attrition has been attributed to pathology findings in toxicity studies. There are currently no primers or basic overviews covering the field of toxicologic pathology, whereas there are at least several basic books that cover the sister field of toxicology.Toxicologic Pathology: A Primer is a practical, easy-to-use reference designed to contain core information provided by board-certified veterinary pathologists, all experts in the field. The Primer contains the basic, underlying principles of toxicologic pathology at the introductory level; thus it will be valuable to the veterinary pathology student who may be considering a career in the field as well as a companion to the seasoned toxicologic pathologist who wants a succinct refresher. The Primer is arranged as chapters presenting each major organ system preceded by an overview chapter covering the field of toxicologic pathology followed by a “concept” chapter describing the role of toxicologic pathology in drug development. Photomicrographs and illustrations provide visual context.The organ system chapters provide histopathologic descriptions of lesions observed in toxicity studies of test articles in drug development and testing of chemicals that may negatively impact the environment. Each organ system chapter provides additional information related to a particular lesion to aid the reader in better understanding its toxicologic significance relative to human risk.Each organ system chapter contains:A brief introductionA succinct description of the anatomy and physiology of the systemDescriptions of the most important pathological lesionsDifferential diagnosesBiological consequences, pathogenesis, and/or mechanism of lesion formationAssociated clinical pathology correlatesNonclinical safety scientists such as study directors, non-pathology-oriented contributing scientists such as senior toxicology report reviewers, scientific management of Contract Research Organizations (CROs), and students should find the Primer useful in helping them understand the fundamentals of toxicologic pathology.

The second volume in the CURRENT TOPICS IN NONCLINICAL DRUG DEVELOPMENT SERIES explores the critical issues and current topics in nonclinical drug development. This second volume covers individual topics and strategies in drug development from compound characterization to drug registration. Written by a variety of experts in the field, recent and rapid advances in technologies and associated changes in regulatory guidance are discussed.Select topics include:Evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies and the impact on toxicologic pathology.Current approaches to carcinogenicity testing.Predicting drug-drug interactions.Current understanding of idiosyncratic drug reaction.Assessing cardiovascular risks beyond QT interval.Use of 3D cell cultures in toxicology and ADME.Development of small molecule-antibody complexes.Differentiating adverse from non-adverse findings in nonclinical studies.Current Topics in Nonclinical Drug Development: Volume 2 will aid toxicologists, toxicologic pathologists, consultants, regulators, study directors, and nonclinical scientists dealing with day-to-day issues encountered in drug development and assist in formulating strategies for resolution of these issues. In addition, the book will be a valuable reference for academicians and graduate students pursuing research related to nonclinical drug development.

Over the past few decades, there has been an exponential growth of interest in the field of toxicologic pathology, a critical field in safety science, particularly as related to its impact on nonclinical safety in global drug development and care of the environment. Photomicrographic examples of selected nonproliferative and proliferative lesions are necessary to complement the written narratives in textbooks on toxicologic pathology. Toxicologic Pathology: An Atlas fits that need with input provided by top experts in the field. It will become a valuable reference, not only for toxicologic pathologists, but also for a wide variety of nonclinical safety scientists, especially in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries.This book provides illustrations and descriptions of commonly observed findings in toxicologic pathology (i.e., over 1100 photomicrographic examples). These illustrations add visual context to the terms and descriptions commonly used in the field. The illustrations and accompanying descriptions were prepared and peer reviewed by editors and contributors who are known experts in toxicologic pathology, toxicology, and drug development. The Atlas is designed to be practical, easy to use and written with the hope that it will become a reliable "go-to" reference that will be of interest to students and nonscientists (e.g., individuals serving on animal care and use committees) as a key, single source to understanding terminology and visualizing tissue changes described by toxicologic pathologists.

The new edition provides practical and timely information for toxicologic pathologists working in drug discovery and development. The introductory concept chapters are consolidated into two more concise and better-organized introductory chapters. The two concept chapters introduce the reader to pharmaceutical R&D, the role of the pathologist in the process, and critical partner scientific disciplines with whom the pathologist will collaborate. In this revision, the organ system chapters incorporate more consistent commentary and guidance on the molecular mechanism of action, human translational relevance, and regulatory impact of pathological findings as they are described in these chapters.Key Features:Aids scientists in understanding spontaneously occurring and compound-related pathological findingsFeatures three new well-respected scientists on the editorial teamIncludes more consistent commentary and guidance in the organ system chapters

This third volume in the series focuses on such germane issues as the weight of evidence approach, the 3Rs, (Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement) personalized drug therapies, and oncology therapeutics, among others. Volumes in this series are aimed at toxicologists and toxicologic pathologists involved in drug development. Volumes in the Current Topics in Nonclinical Drug Development series are aimed at toxicologists, toxicologic pathologists, regulators, and study directors, dealing with issues in study design, evaluation of findings, and presentation of data. In addition, the series will serve as an aid to academicians and graduate students studying nonclinical drug development.Key Features:Explores the critical issues and current topics important in nonclinical drug developmentDeals with day-to-day issues in study design, evaluation of findings, and presentation of dataAids academicians and graduate students pursuing research related to nonclinical drug developmentDelves into both the art and science of nonclinical drug development and its impact on translational medicine and human safety
