Before programs enter clinical trials
Where start, safe dose for first-in-human study and potential toxicity of the candidate drug are determined. The flexibility of CETSA makes it the first choice for translational studies where confirming target engagement within tissue samples is required, and in patient-derived material can provide a vital clue to the drug candidate’s probable efficacy in human studies.
"At AstraZeneca, we are applying CETSA in hit identification and lead optimization to identify and characterize compounds for a number of novel targets."
