The rising impact of biomarkers in early clinical development

Drug Target Review

Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a validated surrogate endpoint for the reduction of microvascular complications associated with diabetes mellitus; reduced HIV-RNA levels serve as an endpoint for HIV disease control; and a reduction in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is used as an endpoint indicating lower likelihood of cardiovascular events.

Future-proofing drug development with GenAI

Drug Target Review

Given macro healthcare influences (eg, economic uncertainty, environmental changes) and the numerous available treatments for major diseases, drug developers may need to reassess their therapeutic strategies. This is especially relevant with today’s heavier focus on enhancing personalised medicine via broader emerging scientific findings.

Protein degraders: chasing undruggable targets

BioPharma Drive: Drug Pricing

Specially designed small molecule drugs can bring together target proteins with an enzyme that tags them with ubiquitin, thereby marking them for destruction. In their 2001 paper, Crews, Deshaies and others described how synthetic molecules could attach ubiquitins to unwanted cell parts. "It You can unsubscribe at anytime.

How to Scale Proteomics

Codon

A small molecule “barcode” is added to each droplet and attaches itself to the proteins within. Scientists have already sequenced the RNA molecules of millions of brain cells from people with Alzheimer’s. Credit: PTI Next, these protein-filled droplets are studied using mass spectrometry.
