Abstract
In the preclinical stage of drug development, the most crucial correlation of data obtained in animals with the expected effects in man is in the area of toxicology. It is the preclinical toxicologic evaluation of a new drug that enables the clinician to initiate clinical trial with a reasonable assurance of a safety margin for his patients.
