“…Recombinant chemistry and high-throughput screening assays yield unprecedented numbers of drug candidates, while biomaterials selected for in vivo testing undergo less selection pressure than the drugs or compounds they deliver since efficacy is not a pre-test endpoint (Anderson, Putnam, Lavik, Mahmood, & Langer, 2005;Butler, Itotia, & Sullivan, 2010;Inoue et al, 2013;Langer & Tirrell, 2004;Zaneveld, Wang, Wang, & Chen, 2013). To overcome this challenge, we suggest that significant advantage would derive from the use of serial, non-invasive in vivo toxicity testing.…”
