Popis: Today the quest for new diagnostic and therapeutic agents is a fervent search akin to the gold miners and prospectors of the gold rush in the mid-1800s. While rejected rocks far outnumbered genuine gold nuggets, the hope of discovery despite endless time searching kept these prospectors motivated. Discovering novel diagnostic or therapeutic agents is a similar process as vast resources and time are spent synthesizing and testing tens of thousands of potential candidate molecules from preclinical discovery through the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval process. It is, however, a process that can be streamlined if trialists efficiently manage and leverage all available resources at strategic stages of the clinical trial.
