NIH Clinical Collection Now Available at www.nihclinicalcollection.com
The NIH Clinical Collection (NCC), a plated array of approximately 450 clinically tested compounds, is now available for distribution through www.nihclinicalcollection.com. There is a cost recovery charge of $805.00 for the collection.
Similar collections of FDA approved drugs have proven to be rich sources of undiscovered bioactivity and therapeutic potential. The clinically tested compounds in the NCC are highly drug-like with known safety profiles. These compounds can provide excellent starting points for medicinal chemistry optimization and, for high-affinity targets, may even be appropriate for direct human use in new disease areas. More ›
