Investigational Drugs database (IDdb)


 
An essential tool for monitoring drug R&D activities worldwide

The Investigational Drugs database (IDdb), developed by Thomson Current Drugs, is the world's leading pharmaceutical competitor intelligence service. It covers all aspects of investigational drug development, from first patent to eventual launch or discontinuation.

FEATURES

IDdb provides validated, integrated and evaluated information about the R&D portfolios of more than 25,000 companies and institutes involved in drug development including:
  • Information about more than 107,000 therapeutic patents, with optional links to the full text of the original patent.
  • Pipeline status of more than 23,000 investigational drugs, with comprehensive drug reports, development histories, bibliographies and expert commentary on the most promising candidates.
  • Over 80,000 chemical structures, fully substructure searchable for easy identification.
  • Approximately 400 meeting reports a year, from about 300 selected scientific conferences, with extensive first-time disclosure of investigational drugs
  • A growing bibliography of more than 530,000 references, gathered from a diverse range of scientific and commercial publications, with links to abstracts of full text where available.

INTENDED USES

Competitor Intelligence - monitor competitor's research activities

Research & Development - gather scientific and commercial information about each investigational drug as it moves along the developmental pipeline

News Alerts - monitor the daily news in specific areas of interest by setting up a personal e-mail alert
