Recent advances in (therapeutic protein) drug development

Abstract: Therapeutic protein drugs are an important class of medicines serving patients most in need of novel therapies. Recently approved recombinant protein therapeutics have been developed to treat a wide variety of clinical indications, including cancers, autoimmunity/inflammation, exposure to infectious agents, and genetic disorders. The latest advances in protein-engineering technologies have allowed drug developers and manufacturers to fine-tune and exploit desirable functional characteristics of proteins of int… Show more

“…Delivery efficiency depends on multiple factors, including cargo and cell type, and if done poorly can induce cell death . Exciting new gene, protein, and peptide therapies have the potential to tackle complex conditions, such as inherited human diseases, but rely upon the ability to simultaneously deliver biomolecules or transfect large numbers of cells in tissues, hence the demand for delivery technologies.…”

“…The first recombinant therapeutic protein, insulin, was approved in 1982. This class of drugs now represents an essential and rapidly growing sector of clinical therapeutics used to treat a wide variety of clinical indications including autoimmune disease, cancer, infectious diseases and genetic disorders . Over the years, advances in protein engineering have permitted alterations in the structure of protein therapeutics to enhance desirable functional characteristics and thus, product efficacy and safety .…”

“…cell-penetrating peptides | peptidomimetics | enzyme replacement therapy | endocytosis | protein therapeutics P rotein and peptide therapeutics-biologics-comprise a rapidly growing sector of the modern pharmacopeia (1). Seven of the top 10 highest grossing therapeutic agents in 2017 were biologics used to treat cancer, diabetes, and autoimmune inflammatory disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease.…”
