Conference Description:

Risk assessment is a complex process intended to protect human health by identifying drug-related hazards; determining dose-response relations for a product within relevant biological systems; and assessing exposure levels to characterize potential risks. These assessments may be conducted via traditional frameworks using data from in vitro and in vivo studies, as well as novel frameworks using pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic model-based prediction. Data used to assess risks are typically collected under conditions that mimic, as closely as possible, the clinical context in which a given product is intended for use. Across the mentioned frameworks, risk assessment must be based on clinically relevant information and include exposure data.
