Transforming Obesity Treatment Through Precision-Driven Innovation-Our Computer-aided Drug Discovery Solutions

At Protheragen, our approach integrates advanced computational tools, cutting-edge laboratory techniques, and expert scientific guidance, ensuring every stage of drug development is meticulously managed. From identifying critical molecular targets to bringing a drug candidate through clinical trials, Protheragen is equipped to support each phase of the process, tailoring solutions to meet the specific needs of each project.

Workflow

Target identification and validation: The first step in developing an anti-obesity drug involves identifying the molecular players that drive obesity. To achieve this, Protheragen utilizes computational biology, which allows us to sift through complex biological data to pinpoint the most relevant targets.

Lead compound discovery: Once the relevant targets have been identified, the next step is to find compounds that interact with these targets. Protheragen employs virtual screening technologies, which allow us to computationally screen large libraries of potential drug molecules to find those most likely to bind to the targets.

Lead optimization: After identifying potential lead compounds, the next challenge is to refine their structure to maximize their therapeutic potential. At Protheragen, we use molecular docking to simulate how these compounds interact with their targets, helping us understand the strength and stability of these interactions. In addition, we apply QSAR modeling to predict how changes in the chemical structure of a compound might affect its biological activity.

Preclinical testing: Before a drug candidate is tested in humans, it must undergo thorough preclinical testing. Protheragen conducts In Vitro studies using cell lines to evaluate how well a compound affects key metabolic processes. We also perform In Vivo studies in diet-induced obese (DIO) animal models such as mice or rats, assessing the drug's impact on fat reduction, Weight Loss, and metabolic improvements.

Research support: After successful preclinical trials, the drug candidate enters the clinical trial phase. The goal of each phase is to confirm that the drug is both effective and safe in treating obesity, and ultimately to obtain regulatory approval.

Applications
