Psychiatric diseases have the lowest probability of success in clinical drug development. This presents not only an issue to address the unmet medical needs of patients, but also a hurdle for pharmaceutical and biotech industry to continue R&D in this disease area. Fundamental pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic principles provide an understanding of the drug exposure, target binding and pharmacological activity at the target site of action for a new drug candidate. Collectively, these principles determine the likelihood of testing the mechanism of action and enhancing the likelihood of candidate survival in Phase 2 clinical development, therefore, they are termed as the "three pillars of survival." Human Phase 1 pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies provide evidence of the three pillars. Electroencephalogram (EEG) assessments and cognitive function tests in schizophrenia patients can provide proof of pharmacology and ensure that a pharmacological active regimen will be tested in Phase 2 proof of concept (POC) studies for the treatment of cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia (CIAS).
