Intrathecal catheter implantation decreases cerebrospinal fluid dynamics in cynomolgus monkeys.

A detailed understanding of the CSF dynamics is needed for design and optimization of intrathecal drug delivery devices, drugs, and protocols. Preclinical research using large-animal models is important to help define drug pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics and safety. In this study, we investigated...
