7) Emerging and Pharmaceutical-based Agent Threats (EMPATH)
Abstract
Focus on therapeutic and proactive strategies to effectively minimize injuries and/or death resulting from exposure to Pharmaceutical Based Agents (PBA). This will allow the warfighter to maintain operational capacity in a chemically contested battlefield scenario. This effort involves the evaluation U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approved therapeutics for operational use, as well as generation of novel drug products to enhance level of protection and/or operational utility for the warfighter. Efforts in this area are designed to develop drug candidates that will ultimately be submitted for FDA licensure or to identify previously licensed products for new uses in the treatment and pretreatment against chemical warfare injury.
