Oncology

Immuno-Oncology is a type of immunotherapy that has the specific purpose of treating cancer. It works by stimulating our immune system to fight back. Normally, our immune system is able to destroy cancer cells in our body, however sometimes cancer cells can adapt and mutate, effectively hiding from our immune system. This is when tumors can develop and become a threat to our health. Immuno-oncology involves mobilizing lymphocytes to recognize and eliminate cancer cells using the body’s immune system. There are several immuno-oncology treatments available, including Immune cell therapy (CAR-T), monoclonal antibodies (mABs) and checkpoint inhibitors, cytokines and cancer vaccines.

MCE Small Molecule Immuno-Oncology Compound Library offers 502 bioactive tumor immunology compounds that target some important checkpoints such as PD1/PD-L1, CXCR, Sting, IDO, TLR, etc. This library is a useful tool for Immuno-oncology research.

Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs), a new class of treatment for cancer, are composed with a monoclonal antibody, a linker and a cytotoxic agent also referred to as a payload. To date, several ADCs have received market approval and more than 60 ADCs are currently in clinical trials. ADCs are one of the fastest growing classes of oncology drugs worldwide.

The payload or cytotoxic agent is the most important unit in the ADC. ADC has the capability to kill cancer cell depending on the potency of the payload. MCE provides 105 highly potent cytotoxins that contain auristatin derivatives, maytansinoids, calicheamicin, duocarmycin, pyrrolobenzodiazepines (PBDs), etc.

Drug repurposing (also called drug repositioning, reprofiling, or re‑tasking) offers various advantages over developing an entirely new drug for a given indication, for example, lower risk of failure, less investment, and shorter development timelines. But drug repositioning projects are also subject to several risks, including regulatory and intellectual property issues. So the off-patent drugs are optimal for repositioning because of their immediate availability for clinical studies, with high feasibility and relatively low risk.

MCE carefully prepared a unique collection of 2,697 off-patent drugs, which is a good choice for drug repurposing.

New drug development is a time-consuming and high-cost process. Drug repurposing (also called drug repositioning, reprofiling or re‑tasking) offers various advantages over developing an entirely new drug for a given indication. First, the risk of failure is lower. Second, the time frame for drug development can be reduced. Third, less investment is needed. Approved and clinical drugs, especially after phase I drugs, have identified bioactivities, good pharmacokinetic characteristics and safety, which are suitable for drug repurposing.

MCE Drug Repurposing Compound Library plus contains 5,844 approved and passed phase I clinical drugs, which have been completed extensive preclinical and clinical studies and have well-characterized bioactivities, safety and bioavailability properties.

MCE Drug Repurposing Compound Library plus, with more powerful screening capability, further complement MCE Drug Repurposing Compound Library (HY-L035) by adding some compounds with low solubility or stability (Part B) to this library. All those supplementary compounds are supplied in powder form.

MCE Drug Repurposing Compound Library contains 4,870 approved drugs and passed phase Ⅰclinical drugs, which have been completed extensive preclinical and clinical studies and have well-characterized bioactivities, safety and bioavailability properties.

MCE EMA-Approved Drug Library consists of 691 EMA-approved drugs with high pharmacological diversity. All drugs in this library have been completed extensive preclinical and clinical studies and have well-characterized bioactivities, safety and bioavailability properties. MCE EMA-Approved Drug Library is a useful tool for drug repurposing which could dramatically accelerate drug development.

From target identification to clinical research, traditional drug discovery and development is a time-consuming and costly process, which also bears high risk. Compared with traditional drug discovery, drug repositioning or repurposing, also known as old drugs for new uses can greatly shorten the development cycle and reduce development cost, which has become a new trend of drug development. After undergoing clinical trials, approved drugs have identified bioactivities, good pharmacokinetic characteristics and safety, which can greatly improve the success rate of drug discovery. A number of successes have been achieved, such as metformin for type 2 diabetes and thalidomide for leprosy and multiple myeloma, etc.

MCE provides a unique collection of 1,412 China NMPA (National Medical Products Administration) approved compounds, which have undergone extensive preclinical and clinical studies and have well-characterized bioactivities, safety and bioavailability properties. MCE NMPA-Approved Drug Library is a good tool for drug repurposing which could dramatically accelerate drug development.
