Applications of Model-Based Target Pharmacology Assessment in Defining Drug Design and DMPK Strategies: GSK Experiences

Le résumé fourni par la source

Many critical decisions faced in early discovery require a thorough understanding of the dynamic behavior of pharmacological pathways following target engagement. From fundamental decisions on the optimal target to pursue and the ultimate drug product profile (combination of modality, potency, and compound properties) expected to elicit the desired clinical outcome to tactical program decisions such as what chemical series to pursue, what chemical properties require optimization, and what compounds to synthesize and progress, all demand detailed consideration of pharmacodynamics. Model-based target pharmacology assessment (mTPA) is a computational approach centered around large-scale virtual exploration of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic models built early in discovery to guide these decisions. The present work summarizes several examples (use cases) from programs at GlaxoSmithKline that demonstrate the utility of mTPA throughout the drug discovery lifecycle.
