Insilico is a leading innovator in advancing new therapeutics using generative AI and reinforcement learning and has developed an end-to-end Pharma.AI platform for identifying novel targets (PandaOmics), designing new drugs (Chemistry42), and predicting the outcomes of clinical trials (InClinico). The platform has produced two drugs that have reached clinical trials. Insilico’s lead drug for the devastating chronic lung disease idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), the first AI-discovered and AI-designed drug to advance to clinical trials, will soon be entering Phase 2 trials with patients. And Insilico recently announced that its generative AI-designed drug for COVID-19 and related variants has been approved for clinical trials and has a number of design advantages over existing COVID-19 drugs.
There are 30 drugs in Insilico’s internal pipeline available for partnering and licensing for indications including cancer, fibrosis and immunology, and the Company has also partnered with top pharma companies like Fosun and Sanofi to advance their programs.
Focused on healthcare innovation, NextMed Health unites thought leaders and disruptors from different fields, breaking down barriers in healthcare innovation across the technology, care, and biomedical continuum. The event features a combination of physical and virtual gatherings and thought-provoking content and curation.
