Addressing the increased use of protein and peptide candidates as treatments for previously untreatable diseases, this comprehensive and progressive source provides the reader with a roadmap to an increased understanding of issues critical for successfully developing a protein or peptide therapeutic candidate. Proteins and Peptides is an invaluable source for drug discovery and development scientists in the biopharmaceutical industry who frequently navigate the maze of protein and peptide pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and metabolism. Key features include: issues related to delivery of protein and peptide therapeutics in elderly populations and pharmacogenomicslessons learned on the major marketed areas of proteins and peptides, including interleukins, interferons, growth factors, and peptide hormonesinnovations for protein and peptide delivery such as needle-less deliverystrategies for delivery of these molecules to locations such as the eye and brain generic issues of proteins and peptides

When a biological drug patent expires, alternative biosimilar products are developed. The development of biosimilar products is complicated and involves numerous considerations and steps. The assessment of biosimilarity and interchangeability is also complicated and difficult. Biosimilar Drug Product Development presents current issues for the development of biosimilars and gives detailed reviews of its various stages and contributing factors as well as relevant regulatory pathways and pre- and post-approval issues.
