    Tools

    1. search_drugs

      • Search for drugs in the Cortellis database
      • Optional Inputs:
        • query (string) - Raw search query
        • company (string) - Company ID for the developing company (e.g., "18614")
        • indication (string) - Indication ID (numeric ID only, e.g., "238" for Obesity). Use explore_ontology to find the correct ID.
        • action (string) - Target specific action (e.g., glucagon)
        • phase (string) - Development status:
          • Uses LINKED format with short codes: S, DR, CU, C1-C3, PR, R, L, OL, NDR, DX, W
          • Important: only a single phase value is supported for the phase parameter; do not use OR/AND. If you need to search for multiple phases, run separate queries for each phase.
          • Examples:
            • phase: "L"
            • phase: "C1"
            • phase: "C2"
            • phase: "C3"
          • Status codes:
            • S: Suspended
            • DR: Discovery/Preclinical
            • CU: Clinical (unknown phase)
            • C1-C3: Phase 1-3 Clinical

          • Supports AND/OR operators
          • Examples:
            • phase_terminated: "C2"
            • phase_terminated: "C2 OR C3"
        • technology (string) - Drug technology (e.g., small molecule)

This is required for questions about the status of a drug at a specific point in the past (e.g., 'What drugs were in phase 3 in 2019?'). If you want to know the status as it was at a particular date or within a date range, always set historic: true and use the developmentStatusDate parameter.
