Metabolites in safety testing (MIST) has become an integrated part of drug metabolism research in drug development, and is a widely discussed topic within the drug development industry.
Recent guidance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on safety testing of drug metabolites helps drug developers know when and how to identify and characterize drug metabolites. Identifying and characterizing a drug’s metabolic profile is a necessary step in any preclinical program, critical to assessing human risk before moving to clinical trials.
