The third CMR Workshop prov. ided the opportunity for a group of
experts from the Industry, academia and the regulatory authorities
to meet and discuss ways and means by which risk benefit decisions
are made during the various stages of drug development. It became
apparent from the discussions that took place in October 1985, at
the CIBA Foundation, that decisions are often made with limited
data and inadequate methodology. The conclusions drawn from the
day's deliberations were as follows: 1. Current methodology for
assessing risk and particularly benefits must be improved; 2.
Safety must be assessed in association with benefits as it is
ultimately the benefit/ risk ratio which should decide the future
of medicines; 3. Risks from medicines must always be viewed in
relation to the risks from untreated diseases. It seemed to be the
consensus of the group that such a meeting was both useful and
informative and, hopefully, the publication of these proceedings
will stimulate further discussion in this important area which may
improve the decision-making process in drug development. The
Editors wish to thank the participants for contributing to the Work
shop, together with Dr. Cyndy Lumley for providing the initial
transcript of the meeting and Mrs Sheila Wright for producing the
final version and for carrying out all the additional work that is
entailed in producing such a publication. Professor S. R. Walker A.
