Description

Byline: Ray Greek - Email: drraygreek@aol.com How often has a headline caught your eye, promising cures for everything from cancer to Alzheimer's disease? Then, upon reading the article, you are disappointed to realize that the "advance" was made on a laboratory mouse. It has long been appreciated that animals cannot predict human responses to drugs and disease. Dr. BB Brodie said in the August 13, 1963 issue of The Pharmacologist: "It is often a matter of pure luck that animal experiments lead to clinically useful drugs." More recently, then-U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Mike Leavitt stated on January 12, 2006: "Currently, nine out of ten experimental drugs fail in clinical studies because we cannot accurately predict how they will behave in people based on laboratory and animal studies." Vaccines against AIDS have worked well in monkeys but failed in humans. The way HIV affects animals differs significantly from the way it affects humans. These examples could be easily multiplied.
