摘要
Early recognition of potential QT/TdP liability is now an essential component of the drug discovery/drug development program. The hERG assay is an indispensable step and a high-quality assay must accompany any investigational new drug (IND) application. While it is the gold standard at present, the hERG assay is too labor-intensive and too low throughput to be used as a screen early in the discovery/development process. A variety of indirect high throughput screens have been used. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
