More Medicines for Tuberculosis: Fuelling Drug Discovery against Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Shi-Yan Caroline Foo

Tuberculosis (TB), whose etiological agent is Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), has plagued humanity since antiquity. Even with chemotherapy available today, TB is the leading cause of death due to an infectious disease. Modern day factors, suc ...

Optimized Background Regimen for Treatment of Active Tuberculosis with the Next-Generation Benzothiazinone Macozinone (PBTZ169)

Stewart Cole, Anthony Vocat, Shi-Yan Caroline Foo, Andréanne Lupien, Jean-Yves Gillon

The efficacy of the standardized four-drug regimen (comprising isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol) for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) is menaced by the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drugresistant (XDR) strains of ...

TUCUXI: TUCUXI: An Intelligent System for Personalized Medicine from Individualization of Treatments to Research Databases and Back

Karl Aberer, Yann Thoma, Michael Ignaz Schumacher, Thierry Buclin, Alevtina Dubovitskaya

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) is a key concept in precision medicine. The goal of TDM is to avoid therapeutic failure or toxic effects of a drug due to insufficient or excessive circulating concentration exposure related to between-patient variability ...

A streamlined search technology for identification of synergistic drug combinations

Paul Joseph Dyson, Hubert van den Bergh, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska

A major key to improvement of cancer therapy is the combination of drugs. Mixing drugs that already exist on the market may offer an attractive alternative. Here we report on a new model-based streamlined feedback system control (s-FSC) method, based on a ...
