Drug Development
The average time it takes to bring a drug to market is ~15 yrs 6 years : Drug Discovery & Pre-clinical phase 6-7 years: Clinical Trials 2 years : Approval phase The average cost to bring a drug to market is ~$800million 70-90% of new chemical entities (NCEs) fail >60% of terminations: Phases II & III Steady decline in no. of drugs introduced into the market 1960s : 70-100 1970s : 60-70 1980s : 50 1990s :40
DRUG DISCOVERY
Natural products
Analog Design Peptidomimetics Targeted discovery Random Screening Serendipity
Target Identification
The key to rational mechanism-based drug discovery is identifying a good target for drug development. A target may be already known from the mechanism of action of existing drugs or natural ligands.
A target may be identified from an understanding of basic cellular and physiological processes and/or the disease mechanism.
A target may be identified from mutations or alterations in specific disease-related genes. A target may be identified by sequence or structural homology to known targets. A target may be identified serendipitously.
Lead Identification
After an appropriate molecular target is identified, the next major task in the drug discovery process is generation and optimization of lead compounds
Identification of lead compounds requires: Developing appropriate screening assays
Pre-Clinical Development
Objectives: Pharmacological profile Toxicity profile
Acute toxicity (LD50)
Pharmacokinetic profile i.e.ADME studies Chemical & Pharmaceutical development survival: of 5000 pre-clinical 5 INDs
Clinical Trials
PHASE I
Objective: Safety, pk/pd in normals study size: 20-80
Phase I Failures
Pre-clinical animal models behavior in humans
Inadequate preclinical data Change in drug formulation between time of preclinical and clinical testing
pk/pd relationships
Poorly designed clinical studies
Discuss & identify any additional information that may be required to support the submission of NDA
Identify studies the sponsor is relying on as adequate in establishing the effectiveness of the drug
Help reviewers to become acquainted with general information to be submitted Discuss presentation of data in NDA to facilitate its review
Submission of NDA
NDA application contents: Detailed reports of preclinical studies Detailed reports of clinical studies Information on composition & manufacture of drug and on controls & facilities used in manufacture Samples of drug and its labeling Full case reports of each person who received drug needed only in limited circumstances Patent information Material previously submitted to FDA in the IND or in periodic reports must be included by reference in the NDA
