Navigating the challenges and opportunities of AI in drug development and personalised medicine

Drug Target Review

I think it is astonishing that The Human Genome Project was completed exactly 20 years ago and DNA was discovered by Franklin and published by Watson and Crick exactly 70 years ago, yet that 10 percent success rate has still not improved. With support from pharmaceutical companies, ultimately, the answer to this question should be yes.

Pioneering the advancement of pre-targeted radioimmunotherapies

Drug Target Review

By delivering radiation directly to the tumour cells, RLT can induce DNA damage, leading to cell death and tumour regression. Peptides are relatively small molecules compared to mAbs, making them easier and less costly to produce and modulate. In contrast, development of mAbs is typically resource intensive.
