Navigating the Animal Rule in Drug Development with Modeling & Simulation

 
  October 17, 2025  
     
 
Xtalks, Online
2026-01-21


Gaining regulatory approval for drugs targeting conditions that cannot ethically be studied in humans presents a unique challenge for drug developers. Without traditional clinical trial pathways, teams must rely on alternative methods to demonstrate efficacy and support approval.

This webinar will explore how modeling and simulation are used to meet the requirements of the animal rule, a regulatory mechanism that enables drug approval based on animal efficacy data. The featured speakers will provide practical insights into navigating this pathway using real-world examples.

The animal rule permits approval when human trials are unethical or infeasible. In these cases, preclinical data are quantified using mathematical models, and simulations inform clinical dose selection, trial design and the bridging of efficacy between animal models and human exposure data. These tools also guide broader program development and regulatory decision-making.

Attendees will learn:

When the animal rule is appropriate to use for drug approval
How modeling and simulation is used to navigate the animal rule
How to apply the concepts in a real-world example

Register for this webinar to learn how modeling and simulation can help navigate the animal rule in drug development.
