Lead optimization

Solutions

InhibOx has had extensive experience in assisting many different drug discovery projects, in both industry and academia. Each has presented a unique set of challenges and problems to be solved. By combining a variety of approaches and integrating many inputs we have created DrugFinder Lead and DrugFinder Refine, designed to maximize the chances of success in both lead discovery and lead optimization.

InhibOx has undertaken a lead optimization project with Lauras AS, a Norwegian biotechnology company, to help it advance its drug discovery pipeline. Starting from the existing SAR and available structural data, InhibOx used its proprietary virtual screening platform and expertise to derive structural and QSAR models which rationalized the activity of the known leads and identified novel compounds for synthesis. In addition to novelty, these new compounds offer other potential advantages over previously existing leads.
