Summary
This review considers how non-invasive home-cage monitoring could strengthen safety pharmacology and inform updates to ICH S7A guidance. Continuous automated measures of activity, respiration, feeding, social behavior, and other functions can reduce handling stress and observer bias while detecting subtle or progressive effects that short tests may miss. UID UCT-2112 temperature microchips are among the technologies relevant to longitudinal physiological monitoring.
