1. What is the drug discovery modalities (3 lines)
- What to say:modalityTypes of "things" to be put into the body as a medicineComment: Treatment with low-molecular compounds, peptides, oligonucleic acids, antibodies, mRNAs, and viral vectors, and cell therapy. (not legally defined words)
- What's different:The difference is not only the mechanism of action.Location size, how to make, how to put into the body, where to be deliveredBut the modalities vary greatly
- Why Materials Talk:Organic solvents and crystallization, solid phase resin, cell culture medium and chromatography carriers, lipids of lipid nanoparticles, bags that contain cells—When modalities change, the combination of the necessary materials and devices will be replaced.(This article)
The difference between modalities is easy to understand when reading as a difference in material hierarchy.

4. Perspective of Material Technicians 1: From Pure Sub s to Materials with Distribution
ICH’s quality guidelines are the standard for chemical、 products.Q6A, Oct. 6, 1999 Step 4) and the standard for biotechnology applicationsQ6BMarch 10, 1999 Step 4)Different documentsFacts。
The description of Q6B is a familiar idea for engineers of polymer materials. "The target substance can be a mixture of predicted post-translation modifiers (e.g. sugar-chain modifiers)"Home and“Since the unevenness of these products defines its quality, it should analyze the degree of unevenness and profile and ensure consistency between lots.”Facts。
In short s"Purpose compound + impurities"The standard is formed in the viewpoint of In antibody and protein"Distribution itself is a product"It is a view. From single-dispersed low- compounds to polymers with weight distribution and composition distribution——I read that the standard idea is switched to it (in this article).
The concept of impurities changes. Q6B comes from impurities such as host cell proteins, host cell DNA, and medium components.Process-derived impuritiesHome Precursors and decompositions that occur during manufacturing and storage"Purpose material-derived impurities"Facts。 The material used for culture becomes the origin of impuritiesTherefore, the selection of materials such as medium, resin, and filter will be a quality story as it is (in this article).
and interestingMiddle AreaHOME Q6A"It may be applied to low weight peptides, but it is not enough to describe the standard of higher weight peptides, polypeptides, and biotechnology applications."HOME MoreOrigonucleotideNot applicableFacts。 It does not fit in the frame of low s to create by chemical——Peptides and oligonucleic acids are modalities in “between” above the guidelines (in this article).
5. in the way of making: organic , solid phase , cells and cells themselves
When the modalities change, the "type" of the manufacturing will change. In this section, we will organize it into four types within the scope that can be confirmed by the publication material.
(1) Solid Phase Synthesis Approach to Peptides and Oligonucleic Acids
1984 Nobel Chemical Award for R. Bruce Merrifield"Development of Methodology of Chemical Synthesis on Solid Phase"Awarded toFactsHome The first amino acid is combined into polymers,Derivatives and unresponsive starting substances after each process are removed by "filtration and cleaning of polymers"I explain how toFacts。
In addition, as an application of this idea“The most important thing is definitely the、 of oligonucleotides.”Contact UsFacts。 Peptides and oligonucleic acids are based on the concept of “coupling into solid phases and stretching one step by step”It is.
(2) Cell-based antibody and part of peptide
HUMIRA Attachments Adalimumab“Mammalian cells (Chinese hamster ovaries) are produced by recombinant DNA technology and refined in processes including certain viral inactivation and removal processes.”FactsHome On the other hand, there are examples of using cells in peptides. About semaglutide"Peptide skeleton is produced by yeast fermentation"Facts。 The production of peptides is not determined as chemical .Home The use of this product is handled by this series "peptide medicine and GLP-1".
(3) Live cells and virus particles themselves

6. “40 amino acids” boundary: Where is the regulation drawn?
The precincts of peptides and proteins are chemically continuous. However, U.S. regulationsClear LineYes.

MoreDetermine the size of the amino acids in those chains, not in consecutive arrays, if two or more chains are met in natural form.Facts。

7. Dosage routes and target locations
When choosing modalities, you can’t detach “where to target” and “how to put in the body”.

ZOLGENSMA is a value per kg of weight and does not include other conditions. Less than one dose does not indicate the strength or superiority of the drug.This is a conversion to indicate that the counting unit changes with modalities.
9. Material Technician Perspective 2: When the unit changes, the measurement technology changes
The conversion of Chapter 8 shows:There is a world that can be managed by mass and a world that must be managed by the number ofThat is This article explains.

Classification of 46 CDER new drugs in 2025 (low-molecular 30, antibodies, etc. 12, nucleic acid 3, peptide 1) and rate of action. Number of 54 products of cell and gene therapy products. 25 years from Protac reporting to approval. | The calculation of this article. The average mass of amino acid residue is 110, avocadolo number 6.22×10^23, using the salt weight of the form as it is, using the example of the value described as a dose is the premise. The classification of modalities is not a FDA classification in the judgment of this article based on the general name ending and suffix. The number does not indicate the strength or superiority of the drug. | The calculation of this paper |
| How will the international harmony of boundary modalities (oligonucleic acids and polymeric peptides) be organized in the future? modalities different future composition ratio | At the time of the investigation of this article (September 2026), the primary information such as the regulatory authorities indicating this could not be confirmed. Market estimates of survey companies are not used | Undetermined / Future |
| vepdegestrant is 'first PROTAC approval'. The '40 amino acids' standard is adopted by non-US. Can generalize the spread of oral medicine to the outside of the rule of thumb? | The FDA’s approval page does not contain “first” and does not include other things because the primary information cannot be confirmed within the scope of the survey. | |
| Drug modalities as a material hierarchy (single compounds, array oligomers, polymers, particles and cells). Read that the standard idea is to switch from “pure substance” to “combination”. Peptides and oligonucleic acids are positioned as modalities between them. Examples of materials of the main role are divided into four types of manufacturing. The location of the target was organized in concentric circle. Read that the transition from "quantity" to "counting", the impact of container absorption and shearing of containers and liquid materials is as large as modalities with fewer amounts.

It is not the opinion of authors and regulatory authorities of each paper | |

Last Updated: September 26, 2026/Source is limited to primary information (DailyMed), FDA published materials, U.S. federal rules, ICH guidelines, and Nobel Foundation announcements. They are distinguished from the facts that have been sourced as "instructions" because they contain readings in material and process design. The future composition ratio of different modalities, the future of the boundary modalities, is not stated because it was not possible to confirm whether the first PROTAC was published. This article explains materials and manufacturing technologies.It does not evaluate and compare the effectiveness and safety of the treatment, and it is not a medical advice.
