PREDIT: Our Proprietary AI-based In-silico Platform
Drug discovery is a complex and expensive process that can take many years. However, the use of computational drug design has emerged as a powerful tool to accelerate drug discovery and development. As experts in this field, we believe that close collaboration with the pharmaceutical industry can help to bridge the gap between the development of new computational methods and their application to real-world drug discovery projects. By leveraging our expertise, we can work with pharmaceutical companies to advance drug discovery programs and reduce the time and cost associated with traditional drug discovery approaches.


Limitations of the traditional drug discovery pipeline
-
On average, it takes 10-15 years and costs $2.6 billion to develop one new medicine, including the cost of the many failures
-
Only 12% of new molecular entities that enter clinical trials eventually receive U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval
-
Approximately 7,000 rare diseases exist today yet only 5% have an available treatment
-
Any tactic that may help to reduce the significant costs associated in the initial stages of drug discovery is expected to significantly improve the productivity of drug discovery efforts
-
Therefore, for the sake of time, effort, and cost, computer-aided drug design is crucial in the contemporary drug development pipeline; starting from target identification to lead optimization
