Book Description
In the late 1980s, it became painfully evident to the pharmaceutical industry that the old paradigm of drug discovery, which involved highly segmented drug - sign and development activities, would not produce an acceptable success rate in the future. Therefore, in the early 1990s a paradigm shift occurred in which drug design and development activities became more highly integrated. This new str- egy required medicinal chemists to design drug candidates with structural f- tures that optimized pharmacological (e. g. , high affinity and specificity for the target receptor), pharmaceutical (e. g. , solubility and chemical stability), bioph- maceutical (e. g. , cell membrane permeability), and metabolic/pharmacokinetic (e. g. , metabolic stability, clearance, and protein binding) properties. Successful implementation of this strategy requires a multidisciplinary team effort, incl- ing scientists from drug design (e. g. , medicinal chemists, cell biologists, en- mologists, pharmacologists) and drug development (e. g. , analytical chemists, pharmaceutical scientists, physiologists, and molecular biologists representing the disciplines of pharmaceutics, biopharmaceutics, and pharmacokinetics/drug metabolism). With this new, highly integrated approach to drug design now widely utilized by the pharmaceutical industry, the editors of this book have provided the sci- tific community with case histories to illustrate the nature of the interdisciplinary interactions necessary to successfully implement this new approach to drug d- covery. In the first chapter, Ralph Hirschmann provides a historical perspective of why this paradigm shift in drug discovery has occurred.

Improving and Accelerating Therapeutic Development for Nervous System Disorders
Author: Institute of Medicine
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309292492
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 107
Book Description
Improving and Accelerating Therapeutic Development for Nervous System Disorders is the summary of a workshop convened by the IOM Forum on Neuroscience and Nervous System Disorders to examine opportunities to accelerate early phases of drug development for nervous system drug discovery. Workshop participants discussed challenges in neuroscience research for enabling faster entry of potential treatments into first-in-human trials, explored how new and emerging tools and technologies may improve the efficiency of research, and considered mechanisms to facilitate a more effective and efficient development pipeline. There are several challenges to the current drug development pipeline for nervous system disorders. The fundamental etiology and pathophysiology of many nervous system disorders are unknown and the brain is inaccessible to study, making it difficult to develop accurate models. Patient heterogeneity is high, disease pathology can occur years to decades before becoming clinically apparent, and diagnostic and treatment biomarkers are lacking. In addition, the lack of validated targets, limitations related to the predictive validity of animal models - the extent to which the model predicts clinical efficacy - and regulatory barriers can also impede translation and drug development for nervous system disorders. Improving and Accelerating Therapeutic Development for Nervous System Disorders identifies avenues for moving directly from cellular models to human trials, minimizing the need for animal models to test efficacy, and discusses the potential benefits and risks of such an approach. This report is a timely discussion of opportunities to improve early drug development with a focus toward preclinical trials.

Natural Products and Drug Discovery
Author: Subhash C. Mandal
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0081021046
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 778
Book Description
Natural Products and Drug Discovery: An Integrated Approach provides an applied overview of the field, from traditional medicinal targets, to cutting-edge molecular techniques. Natural products have always been of key importance to drug discovery, but as modern techniques and technologies have allowed researchers to identify, isolate, extract and synthesize their active compounds in new ways, they are once again coming to the forefront of drug discovery. Combining the potential of traditional medicine with the refinement of modern chemical technology, the use of natural products as the basis for drugs can help in the development of more environmentally sound, economical, and effective drug discovery processes. Natural Products & Drug Discovery: An Integrated Approach reflects on the current changes in this field, giving context to the current shift and using supportive case studies to highlight the challenges and successes faced by researchers in integrating traditional medicinal sources with modern chemical technologies. It therefore acts as a useful reference to medicinal chemists, phytochemists, biochemists, pharma R&D professionals, and drug discovery students and researchers. - Reviews the changing role of natural products in drug discovery, integrating traditional knowledge with modern molecular technologies - Highlights the potential future role of natural products in preventative medicine - Supported by real world case studies throughout

Complete Accounts of Integrated Drug Discovery and Development
Author: Ahmed F. Abdel-Magid
Publisher: ACS Symposium
ISBN: 9780841233980
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The chapters in this book are written to accentuate the interdependency and synergy between drug discovery and process development disciplines to advance a new chemical entity into clinical trials and eventually to the market. Due to the success of our previous books (Comprehensive Accounts of Pharmaceutical Research and Development: From Discovery to Late-Stage Process Development, Volumes 1 and 2), the editors sought to further arm experienced modern synthetic organic chemists, and budding researchers perhaps still in universities with real world examples from the pharmaceutical industry. In addition, the chapters contain citations of a large number of valuable selected references to the primary literature. The book highlights the tireless efforts of Discovery and Process Chemists, and their roles in the advancement of drug discovery and development. The editors were motivated to create this book by our appreciation of the value of chemical research by both Discovery and Process Chemists in producing new pharmaceutical entities. Their combined efforts make it possible to introduce novel and effective drugs into the market to treat hundreds of millions of patients and alleviate their suffering, improve their quality of life and possibly save their lives from diseases and disorders. The chapters presented in this book are written by a selected group of outstanding, highly accomplished Medicinal and Process Chemists with noted experiences and diverse backgrounds representing some of the top pharmaceutical companies. The chapters highlight examples of emerging concepts, new developments and challenges arising in the discovery of new drug candidates and the development of new practical synthetic chemistry processes to produce these drug candidates on large scale. The story leading up to the discovery of each drug or drug candidate is presented by the Discovery Chemist(s), and then the Process Chemist(s) describe the development of the same drug to give the reader a complete story of drug discovery and development. The reader will experience a rare and unique opportunity to obtain the complete perspectives of Discovery and Process Chemistry in a single book. While most of these topics have appeared in the primary literature where space is critical and brevity valued, the book permits the editors and contributors to tell the complete tales as stories, from start to finish or to the current state of the drug development.
