“…Moreover, consider its use in the clinical tests as irresponsible and unethical behavior [11][12][13]. In contrast, in case of using the human sample during doing clinical tests, this should be based on the handling way between the physicians, patients, the ethical standards and the method of merging them into each other, because distinctly should have a huge combination between the clinical ethics and the physician's profession.…”

We are at a time where diseases, epidemics and viruses spreading with unlimited rate and neither young nor elderly individuals have escaped from it. At a time when the average of chronic patients, epidemic, disabled and mortality is increasing day after day, this dilemma pushed and motivated the biopharmaceutical sectors to innovation in order to mitigate this plight. giving birth to a new bio drug need to pass through several phases, and every phase should pass through several ethical guidelines and some responsibilities, according to the rational and moral principle the pharmacists, stakeholders, the managers and the whole company crew form a team with different specialization but with one principle, is to serve the patients' health, improve the healthcare system and enhance the humanity wellbeing with a high ethical and responsibility values. This article gives a glance about some ethical standards, behavior and responsible guidelines which should the whole biopharmaceutical crew adhere to before and during and after the bio drug innovation's process.

“…Both aforementioned positions differ from each other - loosely speaking - in that they give different answers to the core question in the field of animal ethics, which is as follows [18]: ‘Are human beings morally justified in causing animals distress, and/or pain, and/or suffering, and/or lasting harm (including death) in research and experimentation aimed at alleviating or preventing human suffering and/or furthering scientific knowledge?' …”

“…In order to develop an argumentative approach to the aforementioned core question, it is first of all necessary to break it down into individual ethical issues formulated in more concrete terms [18,19]. Five individual questions can essentially be derived from it, the content of which will be briefly defined in the following (for examples of ethical reasoning on the respective issues see the ethical viewpoints outlined in the section Relevant Ethical Positions for dealing with Animal-Based Research).…”

“…They may suffer both mentally and physically as a result of their lack of ability to adapt to these captive conditions [18,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28]. Some experts are of the view that it is intrinsically problematic to fulfil the complex social, behavioural and psychological needs of animals in the laboratory environment, particularly in the case of highly developed animals.…”

“…They also believe that the minimum standards of accommodation may be insufficient for their well-being (or barely so). As a result of these concerns, major investments have been made in recent years to improve housing conditions for non-human primates (NHPs), with extra attention being paid to a richer environment and social contact [18,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32]. Nevertheless, a considerable variation in standards remains.…”

In recent years, there have been a number of new demands and regulations which have reignited the discussion on ethics in animal-based research. In the light of this development, the present review first presents an overview of underlying core ethical questions and issues. This is followed by an outline of the current discussion on whether animals (used for experimentation) should have rights ascribed to them and whether animals need to have certain characteristics in order to be the beneficiaries of rights. The discourse on concepts of sentience and the ‘sociozoological scale' in particular is mapped out in this regard. There follows an outline of relevant ethical positions and current moral approaches to animal-based research (animal rights position, utilitarianism, ‘convergence position', intrinsic cultural value of fundamental research, ‘contractarianism', anthropocentrism, principle of the three Rs).

The Three Rs

The term “the three Rs” in science refers to replacement, reduction, and refinement, a set of guiding principles for more humane animal research: replacement of animals with nonsentient alternatives; reduction of the number of animals used to the minimum consistent with achieving the scientific objectives; refinement of scientific procedures and husbandry to minimize pain and distress and improve animal welfare. The three Rs were originally conceived by UFAW scholars William Russell and Rex Burch and represent a framework for minimizing animal use and suffering in science without prejudicing scientific or medical progress. Today the three Rs are increasingly recognized as principles that also support the generation of valid and robust scientific data, helping to improve quality of science and business efficiency. Opportunities exist to apply all three Rs to research using nonhuman primates, including biomedical, cognitive, and behavioral research, drug development, and safety assessment.
