Not all neoantigens are created equal

Drug Target Review

In most cancers, the tumour evolves by acquiring mutations that confer growth advantages or resistance to therapies. Recent advances in bioinformatics show clonal neoantigens are the best targets for immunotherapy, as I will elucidate below. This allows the cancer to evolve and develop resistance to the therapy.

Unlocking the potential of smart antibodies

Drug Target Review

Compared to traditional antibody therapies, how does the precision binding approach in your antibody design impact the therapeutic window and dosing regimen in preclinical models? Our approach represents a paradigm shift. Traditional drug discovery is based on the premise that target proteins have biological functions.

In Silico Modeling Unveils a New Era in Rare Disease Drug Development

The Premier Consulting Blog

One exciting application of these technologies is the use of in silico trials in the development of novel therapies for rare diseases. As a direct consequence, in silico methods in human clinical trials are emerging as an important new paradigm in the development of medical therapies – particularly useful for rare diseases.
