A timely and topical survey of modern simulation tools and their applications in real-life drug discovery, allowing for better and quicker results in structure-based drug design. The first part of this practical guide for industry professionals describes common tools used in the biomolecular simulation of drugs and their targets. A critical analysis of the accuracy of the predictions, the integration of modeling with other experimental data combined with numerous case studies from different...
The book «Drug Selectivity – An Evolving Concept in Medicinal Chemistry» provides a current overview and comprehensive compilation for medicinal chemists that discusses the effects of aiming for multiple targets on the entire drug development process. The result is a broad survey of current and future strategies for drug selectivity in medicinal chemistry with theoretical but also practical aspects. Different strategies are presented and evaluated, such as various design approaches, merged...
This one-stop reference systematically covers key aspects in early drug development that are directly relevant to the discovery phase and are required for first-in-human studies. Its broad scope brings together critical knowledge from many disciplines, ranging from process technology to pharmacology to intellectual property issues. After introducing the overall early development workflow, the critical steps of early drug development are described in a sequential and enabling order: the...
