Analyzing Oxygen Atom Distribution in FDA‐Approved Drugs to Enhance Drug Discovery Strategies

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

Analysis of prevalence of ring, nonring, sp 3 -, and sp 2 -hybridized oxygen in approved drugs. For the first time, analysis of distribution of different types of oxygen from center of mass of a molecule. In approved drugs, majority of oxygen atoms are present within 4 from the COM of the molecule.

Shifting the ADC focus from antibody to payload

Drug Target Review

As antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) gain traction across oncology and begin to expand into other therapeutic areas, a persistent challenge remains: the design and optimisation of payloads. The ADC itself is not necessarily a large molecule – it’s a small molecule with aspects of a large molecule, and vice versa.

The rising impact of biomarkers in early clinical development

Drug Target Review

In a recent survey conducted by ICON, Plc, biomarker selection was identified by 35 percent of respondents as a top challenge among drug developers for phase I trials, second only to navigating regulatory compliance (- 38 percent). To qualify as endpoints, biomarkers used in early phases must be relevant to later stages of drug development.

How GPCR agonists, including antibodies, are shaping the future of metabolic care

Drug Target Review

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent a cornerstone of modern drug discovery due to their crucial role in regulating human physiology and their involvement in numerous diseases. In the early days, each GPCR target required its own structure-modulating ConfoBody to be identified before starting any drug discovery.
