The rising impact of biomarkers in early clinical development

Drug Target Review

Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a validated surrogate endpoint for the reduction of microvascular complications associated with diabetes mellitus; reduced HIV-RNA levels serve as an endpoint for HIV disease control; and a reduction in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is used as an endpoint indicating lower likelihood of cardiovascular events.

Looking beyond traditional oncogenic pathways to break cancer resistance

Drug Target Review

4 Another related and well described non-oncogene resistance mechanism is the histological transformation of EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to small-cell lung cancer upon treatment with an EGFR inhibitor. This orally available small molecule binds to the bromodomain of CBP/p300 in a highly specific manner.
