New antileishmanial and antitrypanosomal drugs
Description
The aim is to develop a natural product derived LEAD compound with unrivalled potency against a parasitic disease into a clinical drug candidate, through preclinical development. This includes the establishment of a detailed structure-activity relationship (SAR), medicinal chemistry and organic synthesis, ADME-Tox optimization, formulation, and in vivo studies.
