Computer Simulations in the Pharmaceutical Industry (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

The application of computational modeling and simulation has extended beyond PK/PD prediction of clinical trial outcomes, by defining regulatory strategy as well as optimization of therapeutic candidates. Further, regulatory agencies are accepting modeling and simulations for approval in special populations, drug-drug interactions, and dosing regimen changes. This volume provides a comprehensive coverage of drug design, chemoinformatics, molecular modeling, and computer-aided formulation development. Computer simulations play a crucial role in the pharmaceutical industry, accelerating drug discovery and development by predicting drug behavior, optimizing systems, so reducing the need for animal testing.
