Biologics are a type of therapeutic product derived from living organisms, such as cells or tissues. These products are used to treat a variety of diseases and conditions, including cancer, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases. Biologics are typically more complex and may have fewer side effects compared to traditional small molecule drugs. They work by targeting specific molecules or processes in the body to help restore normal function. Research in the field of biologics focuses on developing new and improved biologic therapies, understanding their mechanisms of action, and optimizing their delivery and effectiveness for patients.
