"Reward Deficit Disorders" is written for researchers in both
academia and the pharmaceutical industry who use animal models in
research and development of drugs for reward deficit disorders such
as alcohol dependence, nicotine dependence, heroin and cocaine
addiction, obesity, and gambling and impulse control disorders.
"Reward Deficit Disorders "has introductory chapters expressing the
view of the role and relevance of animal models for drug discovery
and development for the treatment of psychiatric disorders from the
perspective of (a) academic basic neuroscientific research, (b)
applied pharmaceutical drug discovery and development, and (c)
issues of clinical trial design and regulatory agencies
limitations. Each volume examines the rationale, use, robustness
and limitations of animal models in each therapeutic area covered
and discuss the use of animal models for target identification and
validation. The clinical relevance of animal models is discussed in
terms of major limitations in cross-species comparisons, clinical
trial design of drug candidates, and how clinical trial endpoints
could be improved. "Reward Deficit Disorders" also has a section
dedicated to the specifics of the regulatory aspects to abuse
liability testing. The aim of this series of volumes on "Animal and
Translational Models for CNS Drug Discovery" is to identify and
provide common endpoints between species that can serve to inform
both the clinic and the bench with the information needed to
accelerate clinically-effective CNS drug discovery.
This is the third volume in the three volume-set, "Animal and
Translational Models for CNS Drug Discovery" 978-0-12-373861-5,
which is also available for purchase individually.
Provides clinical, academic, government and industry perspectives
fostering integrated communication between principle participants
at all stages of the drug discovery processCritical evaluation of
animal and translational models improving transition from drug
discovery and clinical developmentEmphasizes what results mean to
the overall drug discovery processExplores issues in clinical trial
design and conductance in each therapeutic areaNeurological
Disorders is available for purchase individually.
