Prodrugs: design and clinical applications

TL;DR: The most common functional groups that are amenable to prodrug design are described, and examples of prodrugs that are either launched or are undergoing human trials are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prodrugs—from Serendipity to Rational Design

TL;DR: The rationale behind the use of the prodrug approach from past to present is introduced, and the possible problems that can arise from inadequate activation of prodrugs are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

The expanding role of prodrugs in contemporary drug design and development

TL;DR: This Review highlights prodrug design strategies for improved formulation and pharmacokinetic and targeting properties, with a focus on the most recently marketed prodrugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro p-glycoprotein inhibition assays for assessment of clinical drug interaction potential of new drug candidates: a recommendation for probe substrates

TL;DR: It is recommended that digoxin be considered as the standard in vitro probe to investigate the inhibition profiles of new drug candidates and shows that it may not be necessary to generate IC50 values with multiple probe substrates for Pgp as is currently done for cytochrome P450 3A4.
