Medicilon Assists Longsee Biomedical's live bacteria preparation LF01 capsules approved for clinical use

 On November 20, LF01, an innovative anti-tumor drug independently developed by Longsee Biomedical Co. Ltd. (Longsee Biomedical), received the NMPA drug clinical trial approval notice.

Shanghai Medicilon Inc. (Medicilon), as a partner of Longsee Biomedical, provided non-clinical safety evaluation and filing application services for the research and development of LF01, and made every effort to promote the high-quality and efficient completion of the project.



Medicilon's preclinical research laboratory has passed the International Laboratory Animal Assessment and Accreditation (AAALAC) and meets the GLP standards of the US FDA and China's NMPA. In addition, the preclinical safety evaluation complies with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) GLP specifications.  After years of accumulated experience and multiple verifications, Medicilon's preclinical research segment has established advanced small molecule and macromolecule bioanalysis platforms, immune analysis workstations, sample management platforms, as well as preclinical in vivo and in vitro pharmacokinetics research platforms.  Medicilon also has a complete animal model library to provide one-stop preclinical research services.

What is preclinical testing?

In the process of  preclinical testing  of a compound or biological agent into a drug, the compound involved must go through the testing phase. First, we need to identify potential targets that can treat the disease. Then, a variety of compounds or preparations are screened out. Any compound that has shown potential as a drug for the treatment of this disease needs to be tested for toxicity before clinical testing to reduce the possibility of injury. preclinical testing What is the basis of preclinical testing? According to US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations, a series of tests are required before a new drug is approved for use. In the first stage, basic research determines a hypothetical target for the treatment of a certain disease, and then screens small molecules or biological compounds to discover any substance with the potential to treat the disease. Then, a  preclinical research  phase followed, before which, as described above, the potential toxicity of the compou

Inventory of the three major in vitro pharmacokinetic research methods

  The metabolic properties of a compound are an essential factor in whether or not it can be used as a drug in the clinical setting, so pharmacokinetic studies of newly synthesized compounds are required in drug development. In vitro incubation with liver microsomes, recombinant CYP450 enzyme lines, and in vitro incubation with hepatocytes are some of the more common in vitro drug metabolism methods. 1. In vitro incubation method with liver microsomes The metabolic stability and metabolic phenotypes of candidate compounds in different species of liver microsomes are good predictors of the metabolic properties of compounds in vivo. They are practical tools for evaluating candidate compounds in the pre-development phase of drug development. Liver microsomes include rat liver microsomes, human liver microsomes, canine liver microsomes, monkey liver microsomes, and mouse liver microsomes. In in vitro incubation of the liver, microsomes are the "gold standard" for in vitro d

Novel Parkinson’s Therapies Possible with New Mouse Model

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that is marked by the accumulation of the protein, α-synuclein (αS), into clumps known as Lewy bodies, which diminish neural health. Now, researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) report the development of a mouse model to induce PD-like αS aggregation, leading to resting tremor and abnormal movement control. The mouse responds to L-DOPA, similarly to patients with PD. The team's study (“Abrogating Native α-Synuclein Tetramers in Mice Causes a L-DOPA-Responsive Motor Syndrome Closely Resembling Parkinson’s Disease”) on the use of this transgenic mouse model appears in  Neuron . “α-Synuclein (αS) regulates vesicle exocytosis but forms insoluble deposits in PD. Developing disease-modifying therapies requires animal models that reproduce cardinal features of PD. We recently described a previously unrecognized physiological form of αS, α-helical tetramers, and showed that familial PD-causing missense mutati
