What do Validated and Candidate mean when associated with conditions in Target records?
An algorithm is used to give an indication of how valid a target is for a condition by putting the label validated if a product acting on the target and associated with the condition has been tagged Under Active Development and has reached clinical testing phase. A candidate target is defined as one where a drug acting on that target and associated with the condition has been tagged Under Active Development has reached preclinical (animal) testing phase.
