In vitro metabolism and plasma protein binding assays are essential for non-clinical safety evaluation and pharmacokinetic studies required before clinical trials. In vitro investigations of drug–drug interactions involving cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and drug transporters are strongly recommended to guide participant selection, manage concomitant medications and define inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Understanding pharmacokinetics (PK) is crucial for the success of a drug candidate. PK data in rodent and non-rodent species are essential to determine if your compound has the appropriate properties for preclinical pharmacology (efficacy) and safety studies. Our in vivo PK study portfolio offers a wide variety of study designs across various animal species.

ADME studies in rodent and non-rodent species are important elements in non-clinical drug development. These studies investigate the disposition of unchanged drugs and total drug-related material, determining the metabolic fate of a drug. Such data are essential for assessing the safety and efficacy of drug candidates.

Radiolabelling drug candidates (e.g., 14C, 3H) is crucial in drug development, allowing for precise tracking and quantification of drug metabolism, distribution and elimination within the body. This technique provides valuable pharmacokinetic insights, helping provide insight into a drug's behaviour in different tissues, identify metabolites and assess potential toxicities. Stable isotope-labelled NCEs (D, 13C, 15N) are vital in bioanalysis as reference standards, offering a non-radioactive, consistent way to measure drug concentrations in biological samples.

Metabolism studies are integral to the development process, aiding in the safety and efficacy assessments of drug candidates. Investigating differences in metabolic profiles between humans and animal species used for toxicological testing early on is crucial to help identify unique and/or disproportionate human metabolites.
