Metabolic Disease Drug Development - USA (October 2012 )

Expanding epidemic. Unmet medical need. Enormous market potential.

The combination of an escalating metabolic epidemic and limitations of current drugs has created an enormous market opportunity for drug developers.

Today, 34% of US adults have the metabolic syndrome, a constellation of symptoms including obesity, insulin resistance and dyslipidemia. Such figures are leading industry experts to predict that the global market of metabolic drugs will reach$138bn by 2016.

The current excitement generated by the enormous cardiometabolic market potential is tempered by apparent shortcomings in currently available drug classes. New metabolic therapies will have to demonstrate mechanisms of safe and significant glycemic and lipidemic efficacy. Drug developers will also have to understand and mitigate the CV risk associated with the major metabolic diseases in order to navigate the challenging regulatory environment.

We worked closely with senior figures at Merck, Boehringer Ingelheim, Johnson & Johnson, AstraZeneca and many others to construct an agenda which will address these concerns directly. As such, this meeting promises high level, commercially directed discussion of the most pressing technical and strategic issues at hand.

Attend this meeting to:

• Get expert insight from industry clinicians on how best to satisfy regulators and speed drugs to market
• Explore mechanisms of action of the latest T2DM and obesity drug classes to optimize your own drug development
• Uncover new pathways and druggable targets to replenish the obesity and T2DM pharmaceutical pipeline
• Hear from industry experts on how best to mitigate against the CV and systemic risk associated with metabolic drugs
• Increase efficiency by hearing from the leading solution providers
Who should attend this meeting:
• Drug developers focusing on developing novel metabolic drugs
• Scientists and academics working in diabetes, obesity and dyslipidemia
• Clinicians and CROs specializing in metabolic drug trials

India 2012 - Workshop On Chemoinformatics and Computational Drug Design, Lucknow

Workshop On
Chemoinformatics and Computational Drug Design
Feburary 27-29, 2012
Organized by
Biotech Park, Lucknow
The Workshop :
Target oriented drug designing has been the main stay in drug discovery. With advances in Biological sciences several new targets have been discovered and designing a target specific drug has been a major challenge. Chemoinformatics and computational drug design has therefore assumed great significance in drug discovery process.
Chemoinformatics and Computational Drug Design approaches are based on the identification and characterization of small molecules targeting a particular biological target. If a validated 3D structure of biological target is not available, it may be possible to design a homology model of the target molecule.
Chemoinformatics based drug designing helps in drug discovery by utilizing structural information to improve the lead optimization. Together chemoinformatics and computation drug design have assisted in virtual screening, lead optimization, fingerprinting, pharmacophore designing, target identification. Molecular modeling using 3D graphics and optimization techniques helps the scientists to understand how drugs bind to proteins in the body.
Classically, protein structure has been exploited in lead optimization, a process that uses structure to guide the chemical modification of a lead molecule to give an optimized fit in terms of shape, hydrogen bonds and other non-covalent interactions with the target. Protein structure can also be used in target identification and selection. These approaches are being increasingly used by research scientists in academic institutions and pharma industries as they help to reduce the time and cost in drug discovery process.
The workshop aims:
I) To familiarize the participants with applications of Bioinformatics in drug discovery.
ii) To familiarize the participants with applications of chemoinformatics and computational biology in drug designing.
iii) To acquaint participants with the current approaches of rational drug designing for specific, and non-toxic small-molecules through guided practicals.
iv) To acquaint participants with in silico chemical and structural fingerprinting, designing and preparation of lead molecules for drug designing and various tools and techniques of Bioinformatics and molecular modeling, docking and dynamics methods.
The participants of the workshop will be accessing online resources of macromolecule libraries, sketching chemical compounds and building 3-D molecules and undertaking molecular docking. They would also learn about prediction and analysis of various properties of compounds, bimolecular and structure prediction and visualization and their interaction analysis. The knowledge gained through this hands on workshop will help them in enhancing their skills in utilizing Bioinformatics tools for their application in basic and industrial research & employment potential in research institutions and industry engaged in drug discovery.
Who should attend : Scientists / Research fellows (National Laboratories, Universities & other R&D institutions) and Graduate / Post graduate students in Engineering / Biological / Chemical sciences/ Medical discipline.

Duration : February 27-29, 2012
