Innovation applications of microphysiological systems (MPS) have been growing over the past decade, especially with respect to the use of complex human tissues for assessing safety of drug candidates – but broad industry adoption of MPS methods has not yet become a reality.

This webinar addresses some recent advances in MPS development and begins to explore the barriers to increased incorporation of MPS to improve drug safety assessment and to provide safer, more effective drugs into the clinical pipeline.

  6. 6. 85 % failure rates of NCE from pre-clinic into clinic (46 % due to toxicity, 35 % due to lack of efficacy) Traditional Drug Testing Still Leads to Dramatic Failure Rates in Clinical Studies US$ 223 m* and precious time lost (*per failed NCE) Translation animal model to human only 8 % (oncology) 25–100 million vertebrate animals per year used (USA) Animal model: systemic but NOT human; 2D & 3D cell culture: human but NOT systemic Challenges Our solution - Pistoia Alliance MPS Webinar - Predict substance performance by targeted Multi-Organ-Chip (MOC) testing
  7. 7. Our Solution Approach: Testing the Patient Without the Patient We develop automated on-chip testing of human organ models to achieve highly relevant and accurate results: • Equip chips with indication-relevant organ models to measure safety/efficacy on whole organism before exposure • Eventually, equip chip with subunits of patient’s own relevant diseased organs to predict personalized treatment outcome Multi-Organ- (Human)-on-a-Chip: human AND systemic - Pistoia Alliance MPS Webinar -
