Medicilon and Gluetacs: Going in both directions, achieving each other’s achievements

Dr. Xiaobao Yang, Chairman and CEO of Gluetacs, affirmed the efficient service capabilities of Medicilon’s one-stop biopharmaceutical preclinical R&D service platform at the award ceremony, “In the past two years, Gluetacs’ GT919 and GT929 have been clinically approved in China and the United States, which is inseparable from Medicilon’s strong support.  Even for difficult trials, the Medicilon team was able to deliver beyond expectations, which makes us feel reassured and confident in our future collaboration.”

Dr. Jinna Cai, Chief Commercial Officer of Medicilon, said, “Thanks to Gluetacs for its continued recognition and trust in Medicilon. I very much look forward to the smooth progress of the clinical trials of Gluetacs' GT919 and GT929, and also look forward to the progress of more research and development pipelines.  We will continue to empower every project with high quality and efficiency, and help partners such as Gluetacs discover and develop more good and new drugs.” Medicilon’s one-stop shop empowers biopharmaceutical preclinical research and development

As one of the earliest CRO companies in China to provide a complete set of new drug clinical research applications that comply with both Chinese GLP and US GLP standards, Medicilon now has a 29,000 square meter GLP laboratory and has established the Provantis GLP Tox data collection system in accordance with international standards, EMPOWER data collection management system, Chromeleon chromatography data system, and LIMS system strengthen the standardization and traceability of the research process, and use SEND format to process data to ensure that clinical research applications to meet FDA requirements.  As of the end of 2023, Medicilon has provided drug research and development services to more than 2,000 clients around the world based on its one-stop biopharmaceutical preclinical research and development service platform. Medicilon has participated in the research and development of 420 new drugs and generic drug projects that have been approved for clinical use.

This commendation not only affirms the results of the collaboration between the two parties in the past year, but also strengthens confidence in future collaboration.  Medicilon will continue to innovate and improve the capabilities of its one-stop biopharmaceutical preclinical R&D service platform, empower more clients to create more innovation and value, and jointly promote the development and progress of the biopharmaceutical industry.

About Gluetacs Therapeutics

Gluetacs Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company focusing on the development of oral protein-degrading small molecule drugs, which is the first biopharmaceutical company incubated by ShanghaiTech University.  It was established in February 2020 and officially in operation in March 2021. It was founded by a number of scientists who have been working in the field of protein degradation for many years.  The company has intellectual property rights for the development platforms of molecular glue degraders (GLUE) and dual-mechanism degraders (GLUETACS), which has applied for and authorized nearly 100 patents in this field from different countries, and also has unique and differentiated technical routes and development strategies.  Gluetacs Therapeutics has independently established an artificial intelligence virtual screening platform, an in vitro drug efficacy screening platform, a pharmacokinetics platform, a proteomics platform and a tumor animal drug efficacy model platform, which could achieve the construction of a complete full-process drug research and development system.  Since its official operation in March 2021, Gluetacs Therapeutics has successfully promoted two drug candidates into clinical trials, fully verifying and demonstrating the ability of the GLUETACS® platform to rapidly discover drug candidates and advance pipelines.

About Medicilon

Since the founding of our company in 2004, Medicilon (Stock Code: 688202.SH) has grown into one of the professional drug discovery contract research organizations (CRO) in China.  Over the years, Medicilon keeps improving their services in biotechnology and pharmaceutical research.  Their services now span across medicinal chemistry, process chemistry, in vitro and in vivo DMPK, preclinical development and bioanalytical support.  By the end of June 2023, Medicilon has provided new drug R&D services to more than 2,000 clients around the world, and participated in the R&D of 420 new drug projects that have been approved for clinical trials.  Medicilon is proud to contribute to human health in the globe.

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 tox...

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...

Enzyme Activity Assay Service

  Enzymatic assay Lance Assay Alphascreen Assay Z’-LYTE Assay Adapta Assay Kinase-Glo Assay ADP-Glo Assay Ligand Binding Assay ELISA Assay HTRF Assay Enzyme activity assays  are laboratory methods for measuring enzymatic activity. They are vital for the study of enzyme kinetics and enzyme inhibition. Enzyme units : Amounts of enzymes can either be expressed as molar amounts, as with any other chemical, or measured in terms of activity, in enzyme units. Medicilon provides various  enzyme activity assays  for  kinases , phosphatases, proteinases, deacetylase, peptidase, esterase, and other enzymes. Our line of well-characterized immunoassays and biochemical kits ensures accurate and reproducible results. Enzyme is a  large category of bio-molecules  that catalyze various biological processes including metabolic processes, cellular signaling and regulation, cell division and apoptosis.
