What is a Drug..?
According to the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
a substance recognized in an official pharmacopoeia or formulary. a substance intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment,
or prevention of disease. a substance other than food intended to affect the structure or function of
the body. a substance intended for use as a component of a medicine but not a
device or a component, part, or accessory of a device.
According to WHO
It is any substance or product that is used or intended to be used to modify or explore physiological systems or pathological states for the benefit of the recipient.

Why new drug is needed..?
unmet medical need; new diseases (BSE; AIDS, Alzheimer’s; obesity); low efficacy (dementia, cancer); side effects (antidepressants, antipsychotics)
downstream health costs; (Alzheimer’s; spinal injury)
cost of therapy; (Viagra, Interleukins)
costs to individual/country; (depression)
sustain industrial activity; pharmaceutical industry employs thousands and makes a massive contribution to overseas earnings); patent expiry

Drug Discovery and Screening
DRUG DISCOVERY Chemical synthesis:
1. Based on SAR - ex. Histamine blockers
2. Based on enantiomers - ex. dopa Rational approach: ex. Proton Pump Inhibitors. Molecular modelling: ex. COX 2 inhibitors Combinatorial chemistry: Biotechnology: ex. Growth factors, cytokines.

IND & NDA
IND Request submitted to FDA to allow human exposure to the experimental
drug. It includes (1) information on the composition and source of the drug, (2) manufacturing information, (3) all data from animal studies, (4) clinical plans and protocols, and (5) the names and credentials of physicians who will conduct the
clinical trials.NDA Formal proposal for the FDA to approve a new drug for sale in the U.S. Must provide sufficient evidence for the FDA to decide: – Drug is safe and effective. – Benefits outweigh the risks. – Proposed labeling is appropriate. – Manufacturing methods and controls maintain drug identity, strength,
quality, and purity.

Ethical bodies
April 10, 2023NDDP10
ICH GCP
Clinical trials should be conducted in accordance with the ethical principles in the Declaration of Helsinki
A trial should be initiated and continued only if the anticipated benefits justify the risks.
The rights, safety, and well-being of the trial subjects are the most important considerations and should prevail over interests of science and society.
Clinical trials should be scientifically sound, and described in a clear, detailed protocol.
The available nonclinical and clinical information on an investigational product should be adequate to support the proposed clinical trial.
A trial should be conducted when it receives prior approval/favorable Opinion from independent ethics committee (IEC)
Each individual involved in conducting a trial should be qualified by education, training, and experience.
All clinical trial information should be recorded, handled, and stored in a way that allows its accurate reporting, interpretation, and verification.
Records should be protected, respecting the privacy and confidentiality rules. Investigational products should be manufactured, handled, and stored in accordance
with applicable good manufacturing practice (GMP). Systems with procedures that assure the quality of every aspect of the trial should be
implemented.
