Drug Discov Today 2024; 29:103885. [PMID: 38278476 DOI: 10.1016/j.drudis.2024.103885] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2023] [Revised: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 01/28/2024]
Abstract
Bioaffinity drug screening strategies have gained popularity in preclinical and clinical drug discovery for natural products, small molecules and antibodies owing to their superior selectivity, the large number of compounds to be screened and their ability to minimize the time and expenses of the drug discovery process. This paper provides a systematic summary of the principles of commonly used bioaffinity-based screening methods, elaborates on the success of bioaffinity in clinical drug development and summarizes the active compounds, preclinical drugs and marketed drugs obtained through affinity screening methods. Owing to the high demand for new drugs, bioaffinity-guided screening techniques will play a greater part in clinical drug development.

[PMID: 37660985 DOI: 10.1016/j.drudis.2023.103760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 07/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023]
Abstract
Affinity selection mass spectrometry (AS-MS) has gained momentum in drug discovery. This review summarizes how this technology has slowly risen as a new paradigm in hit identification and its potential synergy with DNA encoded library technology. It presents an overview of the recent results on challenging targets and perspectives on new areas of research, such as RNA targeting with small molecules. The versatility of the approach is illustrated and strategic drivers discussed in terms of the experience of a small-medium CRO and a big pharma organization.
