BUSINESSCarcinogenicity Studies

Introduction

Carcinogenicity studies consist of conventional carcinogenicity studies (18 to 24 months) and short-term carcinogenicity studies (6 months) which examine carcinogenicity. The purpose of these studies is to evaluate the carcinogenicity of test substances through long-term administration during a period of the life span of the test subject that is comparable to that of a human. Usually, the test substance is administered for more than six months, or else the test substance is expected to have genotoxic and carcinogenic effects.

In recent years, short-term and medium-term carcinogenicity studies using transgenic mice have gained international recognition, all while considering budget and time frame, as well as the ethical treatment of animals.

With years of experience in long-term and short-term carcinogenicity studies, we provide test results that are recognized internationally, such as in the United States and in Japan.
