Understanding the implications of off-target binding for drug safety and development

Detecting drug-protein interactions early helps researchers improve candidate selection. 

Off-target binding happens when a drug interacts with unintended proteins, which can lead to adverse effects, reduced efficacy, and regulatory hurdles. Identifying these interactions early in the drug development process enables researchers to select low-risk candidates, increasing the likelihood of success in clinical trials.
