A New High-Value Service: Establishment of Synthesis and Validation for Drug Discovery

FY 2018-19 · 2018-12-01

Summary
The proposed project will develop a new high-value service client; this involves establishing “synthesis and validation of hits” at 48Hour Discovery INC (48HD). The deliverable from achieving this objective is an extremely valuable investigational new drug (IND) enabling discovery pipeline. The pipeline consists of I) genetically-encoded library technology (BiGEL2) for the discovery of bicyclic ligands for cell-based targets, II) high throughput synthesis of selected discovered ligand, III) measurement of binding and specificity profile and IV) permeability assays. These scaffolds are stable and resilient to simulated gastrointestinal conditions and thus, the discovery platform will provide potentially oral and bioavailable therapeutics.

Description (French)
Le projet proposé développera un nouveau client de service de grande valeur ; cela implique d'établir « la synthèse et la validation des occurrences » à 48Hour Discovery INC (48HD). La réalisation de cet objectif est un nouveau médicament expérimental de recherche (NMR) extrêmement précieux. Le pipeline comprend I) une technologie de bibliothèque génétiquement codée (BiGEL2) pour la découverte de ligands bicycliques pour des cibles à base de cellules, II) la synthèse à haut débit de ligand découvert sélectionné, III) la mesure du profil de liaison et de spécificité et IV) les essais de perméabilité. Ces échafaudages sont stables et résilients aux conditions gastro-intestinales simulées et, par conséquent, la plate-forme de découverte fournira des traitements potentiellement oraux et biodisponibles.
