DOWNLOAD EBOOKBasic Principles of Drug Discovery and Development presents the multifaceted process of identifying a new drug in the modern era, which requires a multidisciplinary team approach with input from medicinal chemists, biologists, pharmacologists, drug metabolism experts, toxicologists, clinicians, and a host of experts from numerous additional fields. Enabling technologies such as high throughput screening, structure-based drug design, molecular modeling, pharmaceutical profiling, and translational medicine are critical to the successful development of marketable therapeutics. Given the wide range of disciplines and techniques that are required for cutting edge drug discovery and development, a scientist must master their own fields as well as have a fundamental understanding of their collaborator's fields. This book bridges the knowledge gaps that invariably lead to communication issues in a new scientist's early career, providing a fundamental understanding of the various techniques and disciplines required for the multifaceted endeavor of drug research and development. It provides students, new industrial scientists, and academics with a basic understanding of the drug discovery and development process. The fully updated text provides an excellent overview of the process and includes chapters on important drug targets by class, in vitro screening methods, medicinal chemistry strategies in drug design, principles of in vivo pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, animal models of disease states, clinical trial basics, and selected business aspects of the drug discovery process. - Provides a clear explanation of how the pharmaceutical industry works, as well as the complete drug discovery and development process, from obtaining a lead, to testing the bioactivity, to producing the drug, and protecting the intellectual property - Includes a new chapter on the discovery and development of biologics (antibodies proteins, antibody/receptor complexes, antibody drug conjugates), a growing and important area of the pharmaceutical industry landscape - Features a new section on formulations, including a discussion of IV formulations suitable for human clinical trials, as well as the application of nanotechnology and the use of transdermal patch technology for drug delivery - Updated chapter with new case studies includes additional modern examples of drug discovery through high through-put screening, fragment-based drug design, and computational chemistry

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAdvances in Medicinal Chemistry Research is a book addressed to undergraduate and postgraduate students, where recent advances in the discovery and development of effective agents against the most remarkable wide-reaching diseases are presented, divided into seven chapters. This first edition of Advances in Medicinal Chemistry Research offers insights into medicinal chemistry that arguably have the most significant impact on our lives than any other. It draws together research on therapeutic agents from natural, synthetic, and virtual screening sources as starting points for the design of drugs against obesity, multidrug-resistant bacteria, neglected tropical diseases, Alzheimer, and cancer. From the prediction of promising hits and identification of active compounds to the extraction of more complex molecules, this book explores a range of essential topics to support the development of novel, economical, and efficacious therapeutics for these diseases, which currently affect a billion people worldwide. Beginning with an overview of obesity, showing the current research landscape, the books shows the importance of natural and synthetic products as promising anti-obesity agents. Subsequently, the medicinal chemistry of modulation of bacterial resistance is presented, focusing on the MFS, RND, ABC, and MATE superfamilies. The book goes on to discuss such topics as antituberculosis, antileishmanial, and anti-hepatitis thiophene-containing compounds, under the medicinal chemistry point of view. Also, potent human glutaminyl cyclase inhibitors are deeply discussed and displayed as hopeful anti-Alzheimer's agents. The last three chapters are focused on the development of researches involving new anticancer agents, initializing with LBDD, SBDD, QSAR, and QM/MM methods applied to the identification of novel promising anticancer compounds. Moreover, IDO1 inhibitors are exhaustively explored and analyzed as a new promise for the immunotherapy of cancer.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPharmaceutical process research and development is an exacting, multidisciplinary effort but a somewhat neglected discipline in the chemical curriculum. This book presents an overview of the many facets of process development and how recent advances in synthetic organic chemistry, process technology and chemical engineering have impacted on the manufacture of pharmaceuticals. In 15 concise chapters the book covers such diverse subjects as route selection and economics, the interface with medicinal chemistry, the impact of green chemistry, safety, the crucial role of physical organic measurements in gaining a deeper understanding of chemical behaviour, the role of the analyst, new tools and innovations in reactor design, purification and separation, solid state chemistry and its role in formulation. The book ends with an assessment of future trends and challenges. The book provides a valuable overview of: both early and late stage chemical development, how safe and scaleable synthetic routes are designed, selected and developed, the importance of the chemical engineering, analytical and manufacturing interfaces, the key enabling technologies, including catalysis and biocatalysis, the importance of the green chemical perspective and solid form issues. The book, written and edited by experts in the field, is a contemporary, holistic treatise, with a logical sequence for process development and mini-case histories within the chapters to bring alive different aspects of the process. It is completely pharmaceutical themed, encompassing all essential aspects, from route and reagent selection to manufacture of the active compound. The book is aimed at both graduates and postgraduates interested in a career in the pharmaceutical industry. It informs them about the breadth of the work carried out in chemical research and development departments, and gives them a feel for the challenges involved in the job. The book is also of value to academics who often understand the drug discovery arena, but have far less appreciation of the drug development area, and are thus unable to advise their students about the relative merits of careers in chemical development versus discovery.
