Biotech companies are leveraging artificial intelligence to salvage drugs that failed in clinical trials. With a staggering 90% of drugs not meeting their endpoints or facing safety concerns, AI offers a new avenue for repurposing these compounds. Companies like Ignota Labs and BioXcel Therapeutics are at the forefront, utilizing AI to address safety issues and enhance drug efficacy.
AI's role in drug development is transformative, allowing for rapid analysis of vast biomedical data to identify potential new uses for existing drugs. Ignota Labs focuses on resolving toxicity issues, while BioXcel Therapeutics aims to repurpose previously safe drugs for new therapeutic indications. This innovative approach not only saves time and resources but also holds the promise of delivering effective treatments to patients faster.
