    Complimentary Webinar — Critical Sample Handling Processes for Preclinical and Clinical Studies

    Sample management at the test facility or clinical site, including sample collection an processing, is a critical aspect of regulated bioanalysis. This is reinforced in the FDA's final industry guidance on Bioanalytical Method Validation (BMV). For meaningful data, every effort should be made to ensure that the analytes' concentration is maintained, from sample collection to completion of bioanalysis.

    Integrating Anatomic and Clinical Pathology into reports

    Anatomic and Clinical Pathology datasets are critical when evaluating the safety and efficacy of a drug during the preclinical stage of drug development. Since anatomic and clinical pathology identify and characterize toxicity by different, yet complementary means, integrating both datasets provides a more comprehensive assessment for predicting important toxicities that could occur in humans.

    Successful integration requires that anatomic and clinical pathologists collaborate closely. At least one of them must also understand the utility and limitations of both disciplines.

    To ensure seamless integration of pathology data into the overall study report, our teams work closely with one another and follows established workflows and communication systems for every project. Additionally, our team can offer guidance on how to best use an integrated assessment for making critical decisions related to your drug candidate.

    And, since one of our team members is a dual-certified Anatomic and Clinical Pathologist who brings over 25 years of drug development knowledge to Altasciences, you'll have a trusted partner available to guide you.
