Chemical Structural Search

At Promax, our dedicated team of scientists and PhDs harnesses cutting-edge search strategies honed through years of experience to execute meticulous structure-based prior-art search across a spectrum of databases. With expertise in platforms such as Orbit Chemistry, STN, PubChem, ChemSpider, SureChEMBL, and SciFinder, we excel at unearthing both patents and non-patent literature with precision.

Our approach is defined by a rigorous methodology that begins with the precise definition of API structures. From there, we meticulously identify relevant properties crucial to the search process. Moreover, we meticulously consider excipient compatibility, ensuring that every facet of the search aligns with the project's objectives.

Our commitment extends beyond mere database queries. We delve deep into regulatory documents and scientific literature, leaving no stone unturned in our quest for comprehensive results. By integrating an advanced search combination of structure and keywords with human expertise, we deliver exhausted chemical structure searches that empower our clients with invaluable insights and competitive advantage.

Case Study

Drug Discovery Structure Search

A pharmaceutical company fully immersed in drug discovery research was delving into new compounds for potential therapeutic uses aimed at treating a particular disease.

Objective of Search: To identify compounds possessing a particular chemical structure or substructure capable of demonstrating desired biological activities. To accomplish this objective, they opted to utilize structure search methodologies and databases.

Our Search Methodology:

Define Search Criteria
Utilize Structure Search Databases
Free Patent Databases
National Patent Office Databases
Refine Search Results
Integration with Literature Databases
Analyze and Prioritize Compounds

Outcome:
We successfully identified several novel compounds with the desired chemical structure through our search efforts. This case study illustrates how a combination of paid, free and national patent office databases, along with integration with literature databases, can be employed for effective structure searches in the context of drug discovery.

Hi Aseem, I want to extend to Promax – and in particular to the team – my sincere appreciation for the work that was done on the E-Watch project under difficult circumstances. I especially appreciated the team’s willingness to work long days for two weeks straight so that we could meet our deadline. I know that many people had to make personal sacrifices so that production could be increased and the deadline could be met, and I am very grateful for those sacrifices. Moreover, I want to complement the team and Promax’s process for producing high-quality charts. Your team was able implement the changes suggested by us in an immediate and effective manner, which cut down substantially on the work we had to do after we received the charts. By the last week of the project, the quality of the work coming from the team was so high, I found no errors in the charts that were produced and no changes had to be made on our end. Please pass on my gratitude to the team for their hard work and dedication to the project. Without their commitment to the project we would not have met this difficult deadline. We will be sure to use Promax again. Thank you.

Aseem Chadha is a Managing Associate at Promax Legal. I first met him at a conference in 2014. He made me a deal I couldn’t refuse and guaranteed he would find better art on a search project that I had already found in an earlier searched done by another firm. Aseem and his team came through. Aseem is a good listener and gets to the point of what his clients really want and need. Like you, Aseem is a very nice person, and I am sure you will enjoy meeting him. While Aseem is based in India, he does travel here from time to time.
