The Thorough QT Study: Isn’t There a Better Way to Do This?
Session Chair(s)
Charles Benson, MD, PhD

QT studies are required for drug approval but are expensive and inappropriately scheduled. A better repolarization assessment can be achieved earlier and at lower cost and risk to subjects as compared to the ICH E-14 thorough QT study approach. This session will review efforts now underway to revise the process for assessing repolarization and related arrhythmia risk during drug development.
Learning Objective : Define the principles underlying assessment of a drug’s repolarization liability; Discuss designing a strategy for efficient, rapid and inexpensive assessment of drug-related QT effects; Recognize how to derive an earlier, more robust assessment of a drug’s repolarization effects.
