Lead Optimization

Optimizing Leads from Lead Discovery/Hit ID

Kinase Drug Discovery and Development Process


  1. Benefits

  • Flexible: customer-designed assay panels for iterative target and off-target activity
  • Measure activity and selectivity in parallel – optimize away from promiscuous compounds in real time
  • Discover new target opportunities; extract maximum value from therapeutic assets
  • Rapid turnaround supports L.O. and affords rapid SAR feedback
  • Outsourcing frees up internal resources - focus on other high value discovery activities
 

Optimizing Leads from Lead Discovery/Hit ID

Lead optimization is an iterative process that involves modifying hits identified in screening campaigns to optimize several drug-like properties, including potency, selectivity, and pharmacokinetics. DiscoveRx provides a comprehensive portfolio of solutions to support ongoing lead optimization programs. Collect potency and selectivity data in parallel on a schedule that supports ongoing medicinal chemistry cycles.

Select from the largest available portfolio of targets to design custom panels for the regular measurement of target/off-target potency data during lead optimization. In parallel, monitor and optimize selectivity by screening lead compounds against full panels or design a customized panel of assays, which can be screened with accelerated data turnaround as part of an ongoing screening relationship

Add the convenience of outsourced profiling with consistent high quality data and eliminate the expense of failed experiments and costly capital equipment while freeing up internal scientists to focus on other high value discovery activities.
