Successful Drug Discovery
The third volume of “Successful Drug Discovery” was published in April 2018 by Wiley-VCH. (http://doi.org/10.1002/9783527808694)
It has a structural similarity to the first volume consisting of three parts: General Aspects, Drug Class Studies, and Case Histories, and investigates drug discoveries of recent years, specifically small-molecule drugs and biologics approved between 2013 and 2016. The book therefore contains both medicinal chemistry and biological drug research with a concept to bring these two disciplines closer to each other.
The new project, which will lead to Volume 4, continues to present new drug discoveries: small-molecule-, peptide- and protein-based drugs. This will include both pioneer drugs (first in class drugs) and drug analogues (follow-on drugs) in a range of therapeutic areas. A major part of Volume 4 will be devoted to case histories of new drug discoveries described by their key inventors.
