Clinical Development of Drug
Clinical trials in the different countries are approved & monitored
by different regulatory agencies-
 1) In India- DCGI (Drug Controller General of India)
Under CDSCO (Central Drug Standard Control
Organization).
 2) In UK- MHRA (Medicine & Healthcare Products
Regulatory Agency), advised by CSM (Committee on
Safety of Medicine).
 3) In USA- FDA (Food & Drug Administration) & CDER
(Center for Drug Evaluation & Research).

Techniques of Drug Discovery
Older Approaches-
 Natural Products (Phytochemical &
Pharmacological Evaluation)-

Approaches to Drug discovery
Target Selection-
 Molecular Targets (genetic information ).
 Selection Of Lead Compound.
 Validation of Lead Compound.

Many targets are most often Proteins, but Nucleic
Acids may also be an attractive target.
TARGET MECHANISM
 Enzyme Inhibitor- reversible or irreversible
 Receptor agonist or antagonist
 Nucleic acid binder, modifier (alkylating agent)
or substrate
 Ion channels blockers or openers
 Transporters uptake inhibitors

Pre-clinical Studies in Animals
At the Pre-clinical stage, the regulatory bodies generally ask about-
Pharmacological
Testing
To determine the Acute Toxicity of the drug in
at least two species of animals.
To develop a Pharmacological profile of Drug.
Toxicological
Testing
To conduct Pharmacokinetic studies from 2
weeks to 3 months.

Pharmacological Testing-
Animal Model of Human Disease May Occur-
 1) Naturally- eg. squirrel monkeys develop dementia in
old age which is behaviorally & histologically
similar to AD (Alzheimer's Disease) in human with
about same pathophysiology.
 2) By introduction of genetic defect into the germ cells
of an animal strain so that its reproduction produces
offspring with the disease of interest.
 3) Using drugs/ chemicals to alter or produce disease of
Interest in animal model.
Pre-clinical Studies in Animals…

Toxicological Studies-
Toxicity studies are done to calculate-
 1) Maximum Tolerated Dose. (MTD)
 2) Gross Pathology to Indicate Target Disease.
 3) Satisfactory Therapeutic Ratio ( Efficacy & Toxicity).

Toxicity studies Required for Complete Pre-clinical
development-
Acute Toxicity 2 weeks studies in 3-4 species to determine maximum
tolerated dose (MTD).
Sub-Acute Toxicity 6 month studies in 2 species.
Chronic Toxicity  Up to 12 month studies in rodents & non-rodent to
determine if adverse effects occur with repeated daily
dosing.
Oncology studies for at least 18 months in mice & for
24 months in rat.
Reproductive Up to 9 month studies in 2 species to determine effects
of drug on fertility & reproduction & expose any
teratogenic effects.

‘First do no harm
It is good remedy some times to use nothing.’
Hippocrates (460-355 BC)

‘That medicine is a right one and pure one which
cures a disease
–physical, mental, spiritual-
and does not give rise to
adverse reactions and does not create other disease.’
Charak Samhita

‘All things are poisons and there is nothing that is
harmless,
the dose alone
decides that something is not poison.’
Paracelsus(1493-1541)

Pharmacokinetic Testing
 Physio-chemical properties.
 Designing Dosage forms.
Product Stability
 Shelf life.
 Drug Expiry.
Pre-clinical Studies…

Investigational New Drug Application (INDA)
IND application is a result of a successful pre-clinical
development program & with this a researcher advances to the
clinical trials with following results & information-
1) Animal Pharmacological & Toxicological studies with an
assessment that the product is reasonably safe for initial testing
in human beings.
2) Information pertaining to the composition, stability & control
use for manufacturing the drug substances. This information is
assessed to ensure that the manufacturing company can
adequately produce & supply consistent batches of drug.

INDA Cont…
3) Detailed protocols of proposed clinical studies to assess
whether the initial phase trials will expose subject to
unnecessary risks & details of Clinical investigators
(usually Physicians/concerned branch Specialist) who
oversee the administration & monitoring of the subject for
experimental compound.
The IND is not an application for marketing approval but it
is an approval for further proceedings of clinical trials in
human beings.

Phases of Clinical Development
Phase I: Human Pharmacology (20 to 50 subjects)
 Healthy volunteers or volunteer patients according to class
of drug & its safety & initial introduction of experimental
drug to humans.
 Deals with pharmacokinetics (ADME) &
 Pharmacodynamics with tolerability, safety & efficacy
parameters.
Time Period: 1-2 Years

Phase 1 Trial Address:
 How rapidly the drug is absorbed.
 Where is the drug distributed in the body.
 Which organ/system are involved in
metabolism of the drug.
 Drug elimination rate in the body.
Phase 1 Trial Address:
Phase I Trial Address:

Phase II: Therapeutic Exploration (50 to 300 subjects)
 Volunteer patients.
 The study helps to determine common short term side effects &
risks associated with the experimental drug.
 Establishment of Pharmacokinetic & Pharmacodynamics Dose
ranging, in carefully controlled studies for efficacy & safety.
 The study may be conducted with test & placebo drugs as-
• Open non blind trial.
• Single blind trial.
• Double blind trial.

Phase II Trial Address:
 What is the minimum effective dose ?
 What is the max. tolerated effective dose ?
 Is the drug effective in mild, moderate &
severe case of disease/condition.
 Is the drug effective for all expected
indications.

Phase III: Therapeutic Confirmation (250 to 1,000+)
 Phase 3 studies are expanded as controlled & uncontrolled trials.
 The aim of this phase is to verify the drug’s effectiveness & possibility of
any adverse reaction in a large group of patients over a longer period of
exposure, to establish safety & efficacy of experimental drug &
comparison with existing drug.
 In b/w all Phases, the regulatory bodies can impose a clinical hold if the
study is unsafe or if the protocol design is deficient in meeting its stated
objectives.
Once the phase 3 clinical trial has been completed satisfactorily, the
organization can apply for marketing application to the regulatory
authorities to market the drug by filing NDA (takes 12 months for
approval).

The value of toxicity testing is illustrated by experience
with triparanol a cholesterol lowering drug marketed in
the USA in 1959.
Three years later a team from FDA made a surprise visit
that revealed falsification of toxicological data,
demonstrating cataracts in rats & dogs, the drug was
withdrawn but some patients who had been taking it for a
year or more also developed cataract.

Phase III Trial Address:
 Overall Risk-benefit relationship.
 Adverse Reactions in large group of patients
over a longer period of exposure .
 The ideal dosage regimen.
Should the drug is allowed to be marketed.

New Drug Application (NDA)
It is an application submitted to regulatory agency (DCGI) for
permission to market a new drug product.
The sponsor have to submit the pre-clinical & clinical test data,
analysis, drug information & description of manufacturing
procedure.
After a NDA is received, it undergoes a technical screening
generally referred as Completeness review for a period of 12
months.
 After approval, the license is issued to the sponsor for
the exclusive marketing rights for a limited period which
is further renewable with satisfactory drug response.

Phase 4 (Post Marketing Surveillance)
Some times ADR only come to light after drug has been in the market for a while
& has been used by a large population. Post Marketing Surveillance identifies
such problems.
Withdrawal of a drug from the market is not an uncommon occurrences eg.
Drug Name Withdrawn Remarks
Thalidomide 1950-60 Teratogenicity (Phocomelia).
Phenacetin 1983 Risk of cancer & Kidney Problems
Chlormezanone 1996 Toxic epidermal necrolysis
Cisapride 2000 Risk of Cardiac Arrhythmias
Roficoxib 2004 Risk of MI
Tegaserod 2007 Imbalance of cardiovascular ischemic events
Sibutramine 2010 Europe, US & Australia (Cardiovascular Risk)

Surveillance System: Pharmacovigilance
The term Pharmacovigilance refers to the process of identifying
& responding to issues of drug safety through detection in the
community of adverse drug effects.
ADR monitoring in India: Central Drugs Standard Control
Organization( CDSCO) under ministry of health and family
welfare launched the National Pharmacovigilance Programme
(NPP) in Nov.2004.
Under this programme, the whole country is divided into zones
and regions for operational efficiency.
The reports from periphery is sent to higher centre and then to
WHO center (Uppsala Medical Centre, Sweden).

CDSCO (Central Drug Standard Control Organization),
Nirman Bhawan, New Delhi is at the top of the hierarchy
followed by two zonal centers viz.
Seth GS Med. College, Mumbai and
AIIMS, New Delhi.
Five regional pharmacovigilance centers are-
Kolkata (IPGMR-SSKM Hospital)
Mumbai (TN Med.College)
Nagpur (Indira Gandhi Med.College)
New Delhi (Lady Hardinge Med.College)
Pondicherry (JIPMER)
