The utility of in vitro trials that use Caco-2 cell systems as a replacement for animal intestinal permeability and human bioequivalence measurements in drug development

Caco-2 cells have been widely used for in vitro intestinal permeability screening of new molecules in drug development but with some pitfalls. Limiting the application of Caco-2 permeability screening to passive compounds is difficult as the majority of approved drugs include both passive diffusion...
