Nanoform Releases Next-Generation AI-based Drug selection Tool

Nanoform | March 23, 2021

Nanoform innovative nanoparticle medicine enabling company next generation of its STARMAP® AI artificial intelligence platform nanoparticle bioavailability excipient microns nm CESS technology silico pharma drugs lifecycle managementNanoform, an innovative nanoparticle medicine enabling company, has today dispatched the next generation of its STARMAP® AI (artificial intelligence) platform, v2.0. The technology uses scanty information AI to expand trial results from its CESS® nanoparticle designing process with detailed master information, permitting dependable expectations to be made in regards to accomplices' likely success of nanoforming their medication atoms.

CESS® is a nanoparticle platform technology which produces unadulterated homogeneous medication particles from arrangement in a without excipient process. By diminishing the molecule size e.g., from 10 microns to 50 nm, the particular surface territory can be expanded by as much as 1000-crease, subsequently improving disintegration rate, solvency, and bioavailability. Subsequently, Nanoform can help pharma accomplices progress atoms into advancement that in any case might not have been conceivable. It additionally opens up energizing opportunities for a wide scope of novel medication conveyance applications.

STARMAP® is a computerized form of the CESS® technology that empowers in silico tries in enormous amounts, making quick forecasts of which atoms ought to be nanoformed. This is significant since there are more potential medication atoms than particles in the known universe. STARMAP® can be a useful asset for pharma accomplices to pick appropriate medication contender for additional improvement from their huge libraries. The benefits may incorporate quicker way to advertise and additional opportunities for widening and extending drug pipelines while at the same time expanding the likelihood of medication improvement success.

The STARMAP® platform can have wide materialness in drug disclosure and advancement just as in lifecycle management for existing promoted drugs and 505b2-like item improvement methodologies.

"AI algorithms developed for big data have so far struggled to live up to expectations in pharma because the data, especially for early assets (drug discovery, drug screening), that is available to pharma is typically insufficient for generating reliable predictions. We believe sparse-data AI will work much better - in practice, this means augmenting experimental results with detailed expert knowledge, which can be used to prevent the AI from predicting outcomes that are nonsensical based on prior understanding. There is a lot of untapped potential in sparse-data AI for the pharma industry and the field continues to undergo rapid development in both academia and the industry in general," said Prof. Jukka Corander, Head of AI at Nanoform.

"By determining which drug candidates are ideal for our CESS® process, the next-gen STARMAP® platform can potentially create new opportunities for our pharma partners. These can include both revisiting drug candidates unnecessarily discarded by AIs trained on old particle engineering techniques, and rapidly picking winners among new drug candidates. Ultimately, the benefit of more advanced AI will be felt by patients as new therapies are accelerated to market," commented Christian Jones, Chief Commercial Officer at Nanoform

Simulations Plus Receives U.S. FDA Renewal for DILIsym Software Licenses

businesswire | April 19, 2023

Simulations Plus, Inc. a leading provider of modeling and simulation software and services for pharmaceutical safety and efficacy, announced that the U.S. FDA has renewed its licenses to the DILIsym® software platform, the flagship quantitative systems toxicology (QST) software for predicting and investigating drug-induced liver injury (DILI). The one-year renewal provides continued access to DILIsym software for authorized FDA employees across all FDA divisions. Dr. Paul B. Watkins, chair of the Scientific Advisory Board of the DILI-sim Initiative, commented, “The FDA’s renewal of these licenses endorses the value of DILIsym software in both predicting liver safety liabilities and defining the underlying mechanisms, which are critical to evaluating risk. The recent signing of the FDA Modernization Act 2.0 by President Biden, which encourages the FDA to limit animal use in drug development, should be a positive catalyst for greater utilization of DILIsym software in drug development. In my role as Chair of the SAB, I am very excited about the direction of the public-private partnership that is guiding further development of the DILIsym platform that will benefit many key stakeholders.” Dr. Brett A. Howell, President of the DILIsym Services division at Simulations Plus, added, “Given the effect of rising costs on providing vital healthcare, the use of novel simulation technologies to improve the efficiency of drug development is more critical than ever. An important first step is ensuring that regulatory agencies have the most advanced technology tools to fulfill their essential mission. We are delighted the FDA has opted to renew once again and will continue using DILIsym and other Simulations Plus tools to enable reviews and enhance regulatory science.” DILIsym software results support crucial drug development decisions by predicting potential DILI risk of new drug candidates. The modeling also identifies the biochemical events that lead to DILI caused by a drug and can thereby predict certain subgroups of patients at increased risk for DILI from that drug. The information from DILIsym modeling serves to help guide go/no-go decisions on major drug development projects, potentially avoiding the disastrous financial effects of failed clinical trials, or better, providing assurances that DILI will not be an insurmountable obstacle to regulatory approval. For the past 13 years, DILIsym Services, a division of Simulations Plus, has coordinated the DILI-sim Initiative, which is a public-private partnership that has guided development of the DILIsym software package. DILIsym is available to the pharmaceutical and chemical industries for direct use to predict and understand liabilities via membership in the DILI-sim Initiative consortium and/or commercial licenses. The DILIsym Services division also routinely uses DILIsym for comprehensive consulting services on safety-related issues. Companies interested in a free trial version of the DILIsym software can request it here. About Simulations Plus Serving clients worldwide for more than 25 years, Simulations Plus is a leading provider in the biosimulation market providing software and consulting services supporting drug discovery, development, research, and regulatory submissions. We offer solutions that bridge artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning, physiologically based pharmacokinetics, quantitative systems pharmacology/toxicology, and population PK/PD modeling approaches.
