You Provide

Information Needed

A drug of interest or a drug target with information on whether the target is inhibited or activated

You Receive

Outcome

A ranked list of diseases with a clear biological rationale for why the drug’s mechanism of action or modulation of the drug target should have a beneficial impact on the disease.

Typical Project Runtime

4–6
Months

A typical Indication Expansion engagement runs from initial kickoff through delivery of the final ranked indication report. Along the way, Delta4 keeps you updated as the Hyper-C platform narrows the disease library down to the most promising candidates.

Timelines can flex depending on the complexity of the compound or target and how many indications warrant a deeper look.
