Tackling Cardiotoxicity During Drug Development

Did you know that the adverse effect of drugs on cardiac tissue – known as cardiotoxicity – is one of the principal reasons that therapeutics are withdrawn from the market?

To minimize and manage this risk, researchers use predictive assays early on in the drug development process.
