Drug Codevelopment

Meaning

Drug Codevelopment refers to the concurrent and coordinated development process of two or more new investigational drugs that are specifically intended to be used together as a fixed combination therapy. This strategy is employed when a single agent is predicted to have limited efficacy or rapid resistance development when used alone. The goal is to maximize the therapeutic benefit by simultaneously targeting multiple pathological pathways, particularly relevant in diseases like cancer or complex metabolic syndromes.
