Overcoming major challenges in cardiac drug discovery using human induced pluripotent stem cell technology
Highlights
- The biggest opportunity for success in cardiac drug discovery and development is to make these processes more efficient and affordable, since they carry relatively higher risk of clinical trial failure compared to other disciplines.
- Human iPSC technology is increasingly utilized to develop disease models that reliably mimic the diversity of patient pathogenicity and disease severity in vitro.
- Phenotypic screening based on iPSC-derived disease models is making cardiac drug discovery more time and cost effective by enabling target-agnostic studies and increasing the translational power of early drug discovery outcomes.
