UIC ERB-525 Agents Essay

Description

General Instructions

The assignment is to summarize the preclinical information that has been collected on the candidate molecule, determine which therapeutic indication that you think is most appropriate for this compound, evaluate its competitive viability, estimate its commercial potential, identify major concerns or limitations to the molecule and suggest potential remedies and make a team recommendation regarding advancement to clinical trials.

For the purpose of this exercise, teams can assume that the pharmacological (i.e not pharmacokinetic) properties of ERB-525 are essentially the same as other selective ER-b agonist molecules in the references below. Each team will determine which therapeutic indication to recommend and you are encouraged to review the literature to obtain additional information to support the scientific and commercial rationale for your recommendation.

The references on Blackboard represent some of the earlier target validation but considerably more work has been done on this mechanism. There are a few other potential therapeutic indications that have been identified for this class of drug and some of them are quite compelling. Do your research!
