Modern Strategy for Preclinical Pharmaceutical R&D : Towards the Virtual Research Company, Hardback Book

Modern Strategy for Preclinical Pharmaceutical R&D : Towards the Virtual Research Company Hardback

Hardback

Description

The twentieth century has been a great success for modern medicine, and has resulted in the generation of a plethora of drugs to treat most common illnesses.

However, in the light of increasing regulatory demands, spiralling costs and diminishing commercial returns, the question of how, when, where and whether to conduct pharmaceutical R&D has profound implications, and not just for those within the pharmaceutical industry.

In response to these and other dilemmas, the authors define the processes involved in drug research, and examine the advantages and disadvantages of collaborative methods of drug research, and examine the roles that academia, CROs, small "biotechnology" companies and "research boutiques," and possibly even the "virtual research company" might play as contractors and collaborators.
