Early Phase Cardiac Safety and TQT - High Point Clinical Trials Center
 

Early Phase Cardiac Safety and TQT

The historical approach to assessing a drug’s effect on cardiac repolarization involved conducting a costly Thorough QT (TQT) study. The guideline revision adopted in late 2015 allows the possibility to obtain reliable ECG data from early stage studies by leveraging high precision QT analysis and exposure-response modelling. Sponsors can benefit from significant cost savings and evaluate the cardiac safety of their compounds earlier in their development strategy.
In addition to numerous trials with intense ECG monitoring, High Point Clinical Trials Center research staff have undergone extensive training ensuring that highly precise cardiac safety data is obtained from First in Human Studies and other early stage Studies.
