| Summary: | "The book gives you a working knowledge of the preparation, stability, and formulation of protein and peptide drugs. The author examines the successful evolution of humanized monoclonal antibodies to treat rheumatoid arthritis and other diseases. He discusses the currently disappointing results of genetic engineering and genomics that have isolated disease-responsible genes without significant clinical effect. The book covers the market and scientific reasons behind the failure of many biotechnology products to live up to their hype. It concludes with a discussion of regulatory and compendial issues and a look at future challenges facing biotechnology." |
