Classification of drugs, impact on non-clinical program, class-specific considerations

The development of RNA-based drugs has increased within the past years and is a promising field of research in the pharmaceutical industry. It is transforming the industry and will offer new hope for patients with unmet medical needs.

RNA-based drugs have several advantages over conventional drugs, such as the ability to target previously undruggable pathways, the rapid and cost-effective development, and the potential for personalized medicine. However, RNA-based drugs also face some challenges, such as the stability, delivery, and safety of the RNA molecules.

This whitepaper informs about the challenges with the 'standard' non-clinical program for different RNA-based drugs, focusing on safety evaluation.
