The 2021 EURL ECVAM status report describes research, development and validation activities, as well as initiatives that promote the uptake and use of non-animal methods and approaches in science and regulation. The principle of the Three Rs, i.e. Replacement, Reduction and Refinement of animal use in basic, applied and translational research, as well as for regulatory purposes is firmly anchored in EU legislation, full replacement of animal testing being the ultimate goal. New Approach Methodologies including a variety of innovative technologies, such as in vitro methods using 3D tissues and cells, organ-on-chip, computational models (including AI) and ‘omics (genomics, proteomics, metabolomics) technology are developed, evaluated and integrated in assessment frameworks with a view to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of chemical and product hazard and risk assessment in a variety of regulatory contexts. Important activities to promote the development and use of non-animal approaches are also pursued in the areas of basic and applied research, where most of the animals are used, as well as for education purposes.

RT @MauriceAtEcvam: Our latest @EU_ScienceHub #ecvam report on Advanced Non-animal Models in Biomedical Research is out! For this one we focused on autoimmune diseases https://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/handle/JRC131505 Check out the whole series (of 7] here https://joint-research-centre.ec.europa.eu/eu-reference-laboratory-alternatives-animal-testing-eurl-ecvam/biomedical-research_en

The prevalence of autoimmune disorders is increasing worldwide. Whilst some treatments to manage symptoms do exist, there is a lack of effective options to stop and/or reverse the progression of the majority of these diseases. This is due in part to the fact that the causes and mechanisms of these conditions are difficult to identify as they include a mix of genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors, and that often they are studied in animal models which cannot fully replicate the complex biological interactions at play in these multifactorial diseases in humans. Human-based alternative methods potentially represent more efficient options to elucidate disease mechanisms and discover potential drug targets. This study was conducted therefore, to systematically review non-animal models employed in the field of autoimmune disease research, and published in peer-reviewed journals between January 2014 and March 2019. It has produced a unique and highly curated knowledge base freely available to a variety of stakeholders in the research community and beyond.
