Pharmaceutical Product Development: In Vitro-In Vivo Correlation Series: Drugs and the Pharmaceutical Sciences

The pharmaceutical industry is constantly pressured to quickly bring drugs to market and reduce costs to maximize ROI and bring treatments to patients sooner. To achieve this, pharmaceutical scientists are addressing physicochemical and biological issues in the early developmental stages to avoid future problems. A multidisciplinary tool that has been successfully applied in testing effectiveness of a drug substance and the only available text on IVIVC, it illustrates the importance of IVIVC in drug development and covers advances and regulatory perspectives on the role of IVIVC in the pharmaceutical industry.
