Popis: | Here we review recent studies that illustrate three areas where the microbiome directly impacts drug development: (1) microbial effects on drug safety and efficacy, (2) the effects of drugs on causing collateral restructuring of microbiome communities, and (3) the potential side-effects of novel therapies targeting the microbiome. On the basis of the findings of these and other studies, we advocate the systematic incorporation of microbiome analyses in early to late stage clinical trials as a strategy to increase the overall success rate of the drug discovery and development process. |
