Multiple Targets

Molecular classification
Not Applicable
01

Overview

"Multiple targets" refers to a strategy where a molecule interacts with more than one biological target (proteins, genes, RNA) to address complex diseases by modulating several pathways. This contrasts with single-target drugs and involves polypharmacology, either intentional (multi-target drugs) or unintentional (off-target effects). Advantages include increased efficacy, reduced resistance, and synergistic effects, while challenges include off-target risks and complexity in design and validation. Modern methods involve computational modeling and screening against target panels.
