CC9 – Drug selectivity

CC9. Drug selectivity is a drug’s ability to discriminate between drug targets.

9.1. Drug selectivity is dependent on the structure of the drug and the structure of the target.

9.2. Drug selectivity depends on the preferential affinity for one molecular target compared to a second.

9.3. At higher concentrations, the apparent drug selectivity may be reduced.
