LONDON, May 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Extra value: One year of free online updates included with this product

There are today at least 995 protein kinase inhibitor drugs known to affect more than 250 specific intracellular signaling pathways for the treatment of more than 142 different tumor types. The rational for this plethora of treatment strategies is based on our increasing understanding of the 257 drug targets that are included in this drug-pathway analyzing tool. No less than 252 of these have been recorded with mutations and 51 drug targets have mutations which have been causally implicated in cancer.

The continuous identification of drug targets and pathways that are altered in cancer is not only crucial for our understanding of cancer biology, but also to search for new targets for early diagnosis and improved treatment designs. Consequently, it has never before been as important to rapidly translate systems biology of disease and therapeutics to actionable pipeline decisions to ensure that the optimal market conditions exist by the time a candidate drug is commercialized.

For this reason BioSeeker, a leader in pipeline analytics, has constructed this high-level drug-pathway analyzer which lets you interact with the protein kinase inhibitor pipeline in a whole different than way than you ever done before. Its capabilities moves you beyond powerful competitive intelligence to an opportunity seeking tool which lets you, by means of both present and emerging scientific knowledge, analyze the protein kinase inhibitor pipeline for interesting compounds which affect and/or fit your purposes, may it be benchmarking, in/out-licensing, combination therapy options, drug repositioning, indication expansion etc.

You Use this Analyzer Tool of Protein Kinase Inhibitor Drugs to:

* Map the competition and find suitable benchmarking/licensing drugs based on specific pathways and drug properties

* Uncover potential indication expansion areas for your drug portfolio

* Reveal repositioning opportunities for your older, shelved drugs

* Evaluate the progression and success of targeting certain pathways by different tumor types

* Investigate drugs which affect crosstalk between key pathways

* Investigate different combination therapy options available to you in various cancer types. Use this tool to look for the most-efficient ways to combine your drug with other targeted agents.

* Find possible adjuvant therapy settings with other drugs.

This is how you do it:
In analyzing drug-pathway relationships this tool has three core modes:

1. Select - You go right ahead and select any pathway for analysis

2. Suggest - The tool can suggest pathways to you according to your pipeline specifications

3. Compare - You can overlay any pathways with each other and do a comparative analysis

You can interactively analyze any protein kinase inhibitor drug-pathway relationship by using up to four different pathway sources and further refine your analysis with up to 20 different pipeline parameters, including parameters such as presence of mutations, molecular function of targets, stage of development, sub-cellular localization and many more. Each parameter has multi-select options to them and can be used as either an inclusion parameter or exclusion parameter.

User Reports with Graphics
Each analysis report generated in the Drug Pathway Analyzer includes many different types of graphs and tables which can also be easily downloaded and dropped into applications such as PowerPoint for external presentations outside the tool.
