The costs for the development of new drugs have increased dramatically over the past 30 years. One of the main reasons for this increase is the low success rate of new drugs being approved for patient use, which is, in part, a consequence of the common use of rodent models for preclinical validation of efficacy. Especially in the development of biologicals, which are now successfully used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, the selection of the right animal model is pivotal. Non-human primates could help to bridge the evolutionary gap between rodent models and human patients.
