Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) represent a promising class of drugs that can target disease-causing proteins more effectively than traditional small molecule inhibitors can, potentially revolutionizing drug discovery and treatment strategies.
In silico Model to Predict Dermal Absorption of Chemicals in Finite Dose Conditions
The development of in silico approaches that can estimate the dermal absorption of chemicals exposed in practical conditions is highly anticipated. In the present study, an in silico model to estimate both the dermal absorption rate and dermal permeation profile was developed for the application of chemicals in finite dose conditions.
10 Most Read Journal Articles of 2024

Advancing Systemic Toxicity Risk Assessment: Evaluation of a NAM-based Toolbox Approach
For many years, a method that allowed systemic toxicity safety assessments to be conducted without generating new animal test data, seemed out of reach.
Establishment of Biopredictive Dissolution and Bioequivalence Safe Space Using the Physiologically Based Biopharmaceutics Modeling for Tacrolimus Extended-Release Capsules
A slight variation in in vivo exposure for tacrolimus extended-release (ER) capsules, which have a narrow therapeutic index (NTI), significantly affects the pharmacodynamics of the drug. Generic drug bioequivalence (BE) standards are stricter, necessitating accurate assessment of the rate and extent of drug release.

De-Risking Clinical Hepatotoxicity in Early Drug Discovery
Hepatotoxicity due to drugs and other xenobiotics, also known as drug-induced liver injury (DILI), is a primary reason for 1) the termination of drug development programs, 2) the delay of approving otherwise efficacious drugs by requiring large and expensive safety-focused clinical trials, 3) the restriction on the clinical use of approved drugs by the inclusion of black box warnings, and 4) the removal of approved drugs from the market.
