Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best animal model for Parkinson's disease?

There is no single “best” animal model for Parkinson’s disease. In preclinical neurology CRO studies, the most appropriate Parkinson’s disease mouse model depends on the mechanistic hypothesis of the compound, the pathological feature being targeted, and the study endpoint strategy (aggregation, neurodegeneration, inflammation, or functional readouts). 

Parkinson’s disease is biologically heterogeneous, and current in vivo models each capture distinct aspects of the disease. As a result, model selection is a scientific decision rather than a hierarchy of “better” or “worse” systems. 

At InnoSer, we routinely support study design across all of these Parkinson’s disease mouse model platforms as part of our preclinical neurology CRO services, helping align model selection with therapeutic mechanism and regulatory-relevant endpoints.

Animal Welfare

The 3Rs impact everything from policy and regulatory change to the development and uptake of new technologies and approaches. This is why InnoSer has ongoing commitment and monitoring of these processes. The steps we practice maximize our ability to replace, reduce and refine animal involvement and facilitate our commitment to these principles when it comes to research and drug development.
