• Sommario/riassunto: An important reference which provides an overview of the current and recently introduced methodologies for testing the immunotoxic risks in drug candidatesHelps readers understand the significance of the methods and approaches to immunotoxicology testingAids drug scientists in industry and regulatory areas to consolidate approaches to immunotox testingOffers a definitive assessment of nonclinical models to study the toxic impacts (bio)pharmaceuticals can have on the immune systemIncludes chapter authors from across the ph
