The productivity crisis in pharmaceutical R&D

Trends in attrition rates* of drug development projects started between 1990 and 2004 in the United States, Europe and Japan. *rate of loss of drug candidates during development
Non-rodent mammalian models may bridge the gapbetween proof-of-concept studies and clinical trials

Relevant advantages of porcine modelsfor diabetes research
• Similarities with humans in structure andfunction of the GI tract (monogastric omnivore, symbiotic micro-organisms play minor role, similar transit time and digestive effectiveness)
• Similar structure of the pancreas (size, shape, position, endocrine cell distribution, beta-cell content)
• Similar insulin structure
• Similar blood glucose levels
• Similar pharmacokinetics after subcutaneous administration ofcompounds
• No brown adipose tissue
