On Target: Next-Generation Proteomics Takes the Uncertainty Out of Drug Discovery

Multi-dimensional insights into the effects of drugs on protein structure and function can help de-risk the drug discovery process, building confidence in new drug candidates and their mechanism of action before moving on to the next more costly stage of development.

Identifying Novel Drug Targets for Neurodegeneration

During this year’s ELRIG Drug Discovery Meeting, Prof. Paul Brennan from the University of Oxford, discussed recent progress to develop drug compounds against novel targets in neuroinflammatory and sub-cellular organelle dysfunction pathways.

Screening Strategies Used in Drug Discovery

This article highlights some of the different screening strategies used during drug discovery. Key advances and challenges associated with the techniques are also discussed.

Discovering Druggable Targets

We recently spoke to Dr Kilian V. M. Huber from the Structural Genomics Consortium & Target Discovery Institute, University of Oxford to find out – ‘What makes a good target?’.

Promises and Challenges of Target-Based Drug Discovery

In this article, we will compare the two key drug discovery approaches, the challenges and opportunities of each and the future of target-based drug discovery.

Drug Targets – News and Features

Researchers Discover How Breast Tumor Cells Can Avoid Common Cancer Therapy

An interdisciplinary team of researchers investigated how cell cycle flexibility allows tumor cells to escape the effect of anti-cancer drugs that target cell division.

Scientists Code ChatGPT To Design New Drug Compounds

Generative AI like ChatGPT can do more than help write emails — it can also design new drugs to treat disease, reports a new study that shows how AI can generate unique molecular structures as potential drugs.

Potential Alzheimer’s Drug Discovered

A potential new drug to prevent Alzheimer’s disease in people with the so-called Alzheimer’s gene has been discovered by a University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.

Novel Drug Targets Aggressive Breast Cancer

A promising drug could lead to a new treatment for the most aggressive form of breast cancer, which affects thousands of women each year. A pre-clinical study found the new drug successfully inhibits the growth of triple negative breast cancer.

Combined Therapy Shows Potential Against Resistant Cancers

A combination of two cancer drugs could be effective against malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs), soft tissue tumors that are stubbornly resistant to chemotherapy and radiation.

Heart Failure Drug Safe and Effective in Trial

A drug designed to slow or halt progression of a specific type of heart failure – transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy – has been shown to be safe and effective in a phase 3 trial.
