How we successfully went from experimentation to scale to build and launch a production-grade GenAI Copilot made for scientists
Unmanageable toxicity accounts for 30% of clinical drug development failures and can cause severe side effects and potential harm to patients. Download our report to see how AI-powered drug discovery can help mitigate late-stage clinical failures and market withdrawals.
Target-based drug discovery begins with understanding the physiological basis of the disease, and the subsequent abnormal or deviant pathways and targets responsible for the disease phenotype.¹ A foundational understanding of disease pathophysiology therefore serves as a roadmap for drug development success.
In drug development, understanding biochemical pathways is essential for elucidating molecular mechanisms in cells and tissues, thereby informing targeted therapeutic strategies. In this example, we used Causaly to identify and explore biochemical pathways affected by targets for acute kidney injury (AKI).
In contrast to conventional keyword searching techniques, Causaly’s AI can sift through and remove irrelevant data from biomedical searches, offering a more thorough and accurate understanding of entire research landscapes. This not only streamlines knowledge acquisition but ensures accuracy and precision in navigating the biomedical literature.
AI is transforming the analysis of extensive biomedical data, allowing pharma companies to expedite R&D processes, and cut costs. By reaching conclusions quicker, the inclusion of AI in drug development pipelines can inform decision-making, enabling the prioritization of more promising research avenues.
The strategic prioritization of drug targets by target class can be used to streamline discovery, enabling efficient resource allocation and time-savings in early drug development, as well as a competitive edge given the variable success rates of different target classes. Prioritization of specific target classes may therefore enable investment optimization in preclinical research.
With 2 publications added to PubMed every minute, identifying therapeutic targets with traditional keyword searching is time-consuming, causes reading fatigue and is subject to bias. By machine-reading the literature, Causaly manages this data overload, extracting scientific insights rather than papers, to enable the exploration of more novel avenues.
Traditional keyword searching can miss crucial information, skewing representations of research landscapes before reading even begins. Instead, Causaly’s human-centric AI can extract all targets for a given disease without bias, uncovering scientific insights, rather than just papers.
Drug discovery is complex, with a high level of uncertainty full of critical decisions with significant time and cost implications. With 90% of drugs failing in clinical trials, there is an urgent need to accelerate the pathway from disease biology to candidate selection.
Drug repurposing offers a cost-effective and efficient pathway to discovery new therapeutic uses for existing treatments. AI can advance this process by rapidly analyzing large-scale biomedical data and scientific texts to identify drug-disease relationships, opening up avenues for treatments in unexplored indications.
The identification and utilization of safety biomarkers plays a key role in mitigating toxicity risks and reducing costs in drug development, thereby accelerating the delivery of safe and effective drugs to patients. AI can streamline the identification of relevant biomarkers from the ever-growing biomedical literature, offering insights into drug resistance and toxicity.
Traditional keyword searching is highly inefficient, subject to bias and is not always comprehensive, providing limited potential for knowledge discovery and hypothesis generation. This selective approach introduces a bias towards familiar areas of expertise, which can lead to missed opportunities for novel insights and innovations. This is where AI comes in.
Biomarkers serve as objective measures of treatment response to guide patients towards the most appropriate therapies. Yet, in the era of big data, pinpointing promising biomarkers remains a challenging endeavor. AI is revolutionizing translational medicine by improving the efficiency and accuracy of biomarker identification.
Biomarkers are pivotal throughout drug development, from discovery to market, playing key roles in unravelling drug mechanisms, providing prognostic insights and assessing treatment efficacy. Despite the clinical promise, biomarker development is challenging. There are substantial obstacles, from disease heterogeneity and rigorous validation requirements to the inability to extract meaningful biomarker insights from extensive biological data.
The life sciences industry faces the challenge of managing vast amounts of data and coordinating diverse teams to efficiently translate scientific insights into tangible outcomes. Traditional research methods are time-consuming and limit productivity. Generative AI offers a transformative solution by accelerating hypothesis generation, enhancing data analysis, improving decision-making, and facilitating collaboration.
