Machine learning: A useful tool in the development of next generation antibody therapeutics

Drug Discovery World

Modern experimental procedures, such as immunisation, B-cell screening, and synthetic library generation, have been pivotal in developing approximately 80 FDA-approved antibody therapeutics. These targets, along with many others, are universally deemed as ‘difficult-to-drug’ targets.

An Evolving Regulatory Environment for Rare and Orphan Diseases

Advarra

Orphan drugs have historically faced a number of barriers, such as limited research and development (R&D) investment due to an expected lack of profitability as well as challenges in clinical trial design and recruitment. Before 1983, only 38 orphan drugs had received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval.
