Produktbeschreibung

Prozesse, die für die Marktreife von Medikamenten erforderlich sind. Behandelt werden unter anderem vorklinische Studien, klinische Studien am Menschen, regulatorische Kontrollen und sogar die Herstellungsprozesse von pharmazeutischen Produkten. Nach einen prägnanten und leicht verständlichen Vorstellung der grundlegenden Konzepte werden die Zielstrukturen und der Entwicklungsprozess von klein- und großmolekularen Arzneimittel präsentiert. In der 3. aktualisiertenAuflage ist dieses Fachbuch noch ansprechender. Neben den neuesten Entwicklungen werden die einzelnen Themen noch umfassender erläutert und durch zusätzliche Materialien und Fallstudien für den Einsatz an Hochschulen und Universitäten ergänzt. Die Biotechnologie ist ein dynamisches Fachgebiet. Forschung und Entwicklung, klinische Prüfungen, Herstellungsverfahren und regulatorische Prozesse unterliegen ständigen Veränderungen. Biotechnologie und Biowissenschaften sind vom globalem Interesse. Daher besetzt dieses Fachbuch eine Nische und erhält immer wieder gute Kritiken. Die überarbeitete 3. Auflage sorgt für anhaltende Relevanz und Nutzen für die Leser.
----------------------------------------

The third edition of this best-selling book continues to offer a user-friendly, step-by-step introduction to all the key processes involved in bringing a drug to the market, including the performance of pre-clinical studies, the conduct of human clinical trials, regulatory controls, and even the manufacturing processes for pharmaceutical products. Concise and easy to read, Drugs: From Discovery to Approval, Third Edition quickly introduces basic concepts, then moves on to discuss target selection and the drug discovery process for both small and large molecular drugs. The third edition incorporates the latest developments and updates in the pharmaceutical community, provides more comprehensive coverage of topics, and includes more materials and case studies suited to college and university use. Biotechnology is a dynamic field with changes across R&D, clinical trials, manufacturing and regulatory processes, and the third edition of the text provides timely updates for those in this rapidly growing field.
