Following target validation, hit identification marks the first essential step in drug discovery. The quality and characteristics of the hit series significantly influence the likelihood of rapidly progressing into a developable preclinical drug candidate. Rdcthera, a leading CRO in radiopharmaceutical discovery, is here to ensure your success with our integrated hit identification services.
In the context of radiopharmaceutical discovery, a Hit refers to a compound exhibiting desired biological or chemical activity that potentially leads to the development of a diagnostic or therapeutic agent. Discovery of hits becomes one of the pivotal steps in the drug discovery process that paves the way for the following optimization and development steps.
The first step in the drug discovery pipeline is hit identification, where active-profiling compounds are identified and validated. This is carried out using high-throughput screening (HTS), in silico modeling, and other biochemical studies that show which compounds best interact with the target under investigation. At Rdcthera, we are using state-of-the-art technology and methodologies in hit identification in order to assure that only top-of-the-line candidates pass to the next step of development.
Rdcthera is a contract research organization (CRO) providing research solutions for the discovery of new therapeutic agents that address high unmet medical needs. Our integrated hit identification services help to guide and assist in defining an optimal and customized strategy to identify hits for your preferred target.
