Executive Summary Until a decade ago, 5FU/leucovorin formed the mainstay of colorectal cancer treatment but Camptosar and Eloxatin quickly established themselves as components of gold-standard therapy. The advent of Avastin and Erbitux heralded a new era in the disease management, and the emergence of other molecular targeted agents should further push survival to an unprecedented level in the coming years.
There are today more than 250 therapeutics targeting colorectal cancer, from early preclinical to marketed drugs. Colorectal Drug Pipeline Update lists all drugs and gives you a progress analysis on each one of them. Identified drugs are linked to 134 different targets. These targets are further categorized on the CD-ROM by 47 classifications of molecular function and with pathway referals to BioCarta, KEGG and NetPath. Read more below on how the Colorectal Drug Pipeline Update is organized. How May Drug Pipeline Update Be of Use? - Show investors/board/management that you are right on top of drug development progress in your therapeutic area.
- Find competitors, collaborations partners, M&A candidates etc.
- Jump start competitive drug intelligence operations
- Excellent starting point for world wide benchmarking
