The development of new drugs is a time-consuming and costly project with a high failure rate
.
According to estimates by the PhRMA (Manufacturers Association), developing a new drug in recent years takes about 10 years and costs an average of $2.
The transformation of artificial intelligence (AI) to medicine and life sciences is considered one of the most promising directions
.
In recent years, the application of AI in the field of medicine has flourished, and many companies around the world have reached cooperation in the development of new drugs based on AI, as shown in the table below
.
Looking at the above transactions, both large multinational pharmaceutical companies, domestic traditional pharmaceutical companies (such as Hengrui Medicine) and emerging pharmaceutical companies (such as Tianjing Bio and Hebo Pharmaceutical) are very optimistic about the potential of AI in new drug research and development.
AI players reach strategic cooperation
.
Moreover, some pharmaceutical companies have reached cooperation with multiple AI players.
In addition, two of the aforementioned transactions were very high in value
.
Among them, in December 2021, Roche and Generate Biomedicines reached a potential transaction value of more than 12 billion US dollars.
At present, the use of AI to develop new drugs has achieved initial results, and Exscientia has several candidate compounds that have entered the phase 1 clinical trial stage
.
Among them, the AI-designed compound DSP-1181 for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder, in cooperation with Sumitomo Pharma, has started Phase 1 clinical trials in Japan in January 2020
