Safety pharmacology is the study of the potential undesirable pharmacodynamic effects of a substance in relation to dosage within the substance's therapeutic range and above.〔A Bass et al. (2004) . "Origins, practices and future of safety pharmacology". ''Journal of Pharmacological and Toxicological Methods'', Volume 49, Issue 3, pp 145–151.〕 In particular, for the medicinal products targeting the immune system, the potential unintended effects should be investigated, e.g. using the ''in-vitro'' studies, including the human material. The animal models that are thought to be similar to the human disease may provide further insight in the pharmacological action, the pharmacokinetics, and dosing in the patients. They may also help in safety determination. ==Considerations== The following factors have to be considered:〔AR Waladkhani. (2008). ''Conducting clinical trials. A theoretical and practical guide''. ISBN 978-3-940934-00-0〕 * The results from the previous safety pharmacology studies; * The effects related to the therapeutic effects of the test substance; * The adverse effects associated with the members of the chemical or therapeutic effect; * The ligand binding or enzyme assay data suggesting a potential for the adverse effects. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Safety pharmacology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
