  Application Background One of the most important steps in developing a new drug is target identification and validation.  Target-based drug discovery has become the prevailing paradigm used by pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. This approach is appealing because it holds the promise of identifying more efficacious compounds with fewer undesirable side effects. Good target identificationRead more

Preclinical Drug Development Process Drug development is time consuming and costly which contains preclinical, clinical and after-market. In principle, if all the processes are straight-forward, a drug can be developed in a seven year period. In practice, drug development takes in excess of twelve years. Procedures are tightly regulated both for safety and to ensureRead more

Medicilon’s medicinal chemistry involves the application of a number of specialized disciplinary approaches all focused on the ultimate goal of drug discovery.  Drug target identification and validation, rational (target-based) drug design, structural biology, computational-based drug design, methods development (chemical, biochemical and computational), and “Hit-to-lead” development are all aspects of medicinal chemistry.  The techniques and approachesRead more
