A new small molecule drug discovery and development platform for HLA-associated autoimmune diseases

23 April 2021 | By ,

In the arsenal of approved small molecule drugs, effective, genetically-targeted therapies for the treatment of autoimmune diseases are conspicuously scarce. ImmunoMolecular Therapeutics (IM Therapeutics) has developed a paradigm for the discovery and development of new molecular entities as a broad platform for blocking genetic targets that confer risk of disease development…

Improved in vitro renal tubular drug transport modelling to meet regulatory and development cost challenges

15 December 2020 | By

Due to the high costs associated with drug discovery and the clinical demand for effective drugs, in vitro human cell-based kidney models using renal proximal tubule epithelia are becoming popular tools for early-stage testing. It is increasingly more important that in vitro models of renal drug transport are physiologically representative…

Expert view: Improving the endotoxin test paradigm established by LAL

21 April 2020 | By

THE ADVANTAGES of the recombinant Factor C (rFC) test lie in its (a) scientific characterisation, (b) sustainability and (c) specificity. In light of diminishing horseshoe crab populations, sustainability has been mandated via regulations that include the concept of the “3 Rs”: replacement, reduction and refinement of analytical tests and reagents…
