 This month's e-newsletter will provide an update on
biomarkers. The ideal biomarker is specifically associated with a
particular disease or a disease state and should have an expression level
that is predictable... Read

Using imaging
biomarkers to accelerate drug development and clinical trials
 Homer
H. Pien, Alan J. Fischman, James H. Thrall and A. Gregory
Sorensen Drug Discovery Today
 There is increasing evidence that human medical imaging
can help answer key questions that arise during the drug development
process. Imaging modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging,
computed tomography and positron emission tomography can offer
significant insights into the bioactivity, pharmacokinetics and
dosing of drugs, in addition to supporting registration
applications...
Molecular biomarkers
in drug development
 David A. Lewin and Michael P. Weiner Drug
Discovery Today
 Arguably, the most immediately promising reverberation
of the genomics era has been the application of biomarkers to drug
development. The promise of applying biomarkers to early drug
development is that they might aid in preclinical and early clinical
decisions such as dose ranging, definition of treatment regimen, or
even a preview of efficacy...

Integrating disease
knowledge and technology to deliver protein targets and biomarkers
into drug discovery projects
 Thomas
E. Fehniger, Thomas Laurell and György Marko-Varga Drug
Discovery Today: Technologies
 Biomarker discovery is dependent upon two disciplines:
the field of clinical bioanalysis linked to disease aetiology and
the application of high level technology platforms for identifying
proteins/peptides in complex samples...
