The productivity decline in drug discovery and development is mainly caused by two factors; higher regulatory hurdles and low-hanging fruits being all picked. In addition, the recent target-based approach is thought to be increasing the price of innovation. Although target-based approach had many successes, a postreductionism method, which is systems biology, is on the rise. In this review, we discuss the foundations of two distinct approaches in finding a new drug.
监管障碍增多以及容易解决的问题已全部得到解决。此外,近来基于靶点的方法被认为正在提高创新的成本。尽管基于靶点的方法取得了许多成功,但一种后还原论方法——系统生物学正在兴起。在本综述中,我们讨论了寻找新药的两种不同方法的基础。
