Again IF we are going down this route, (credit to B2hs2l for suggesting and links)
From article
Various pharmaceutical companies are increasingly adopting bioinformatics tools to decrease the cost and time involved in drug discovery. Bioinformatics approaches for target discovery and validation are proving more efficient than traditional methods. With the help of bioinformatics tools, much of the information regarding drug candidates is validated at a molecular level, which tends to reduce drug attrition rate in the later stages of drug development. Thus, contributing to the success of more drug candidates in the clinical trials is making the drug development process more cost effective.
