Kantify is excited to report its joint progress with @HopkinsMedicine on AI for prostate cancer drug discovery. While a traditional small molecule discovery screening requires testing 20,000 to 100,000 molecules to find 1 hit, we have tested only 5 molecules to validate... 4.

Today we release our inaugural White Paper on the use of AI to predict the unknown off-targets of small molecules. We start with a known suspect of repurposing, aka Sildenafil / Viagra. Discover below how we use AI to predict *novel* off targets of Viagra!

[Announcement] We have known for a while now that it was high time to rename our AI platform for drug discovery. We unveil this new name today!

@SimonDBarnett @dawallach Most people are trying incremental approaches with molecules, which work... incrementally. We've got solid evidence that orthogonal approaches for small molecules do yield giant steps forward ;)

@dawallach I still think there’s a big dislocation between ML claim and reality that’s working its way out of the system. There are certain places where I think ML has a huge impact versus little current impact in Bio (e.g. biologics v. molecules). I still identify as an overall bull.

Any biotech investors out here who would publicly raise their hand as AI skeptics/bears?

Today, Kantify's CTO Nik Subramanian presented at REXPO, the conference on drug repurposing, some of our novel findings on using Artificial Intelligence to find novel therapeutics targets and drugs for rare cancers! Exciting times.

More promising news on this front: the drugs we identified seem highly effective in multiple different types of sarcomas. This further validates our theory that rare cancers share common weaknesses we can exploit in order to treat, and hopefully cure patients with these diseases.

Very proud of Dr. @MayaJeitany presenting our groundbreaking collaboration at @myESMO in Lugano. In just 6 months, we've discovered 8 new drug targets and 7 novel repurposable drugs in most (all?) types of liposarcoma, rare cancers with high unmet need. More validations soon!

Using AI together with patient-derived stem cells significantly accelerates the discovery of treatments for rare diseases. Emilie Pellier and Dr. Miagoux (I-Stem) presented our (successful!) project at #Myology2024 to find treatments for LGMDR2, a rare neuromuscular disease.

Measuring the effectiveness of drugs for neurological disorders is hard, but we're making progress! Mathijs Van Der Lei of @UAntwerpen recently presented how Kantify uses a new assay and AI to measure if drugs induce subtle changes in the natural behavior of diseased mice.

We finally managed to synthesize this drug in a very pure form (and good news - it's still as effective). The chemistry side of the project has really required herculean efforts - thank you to my team and our partners for your grit.
Nik Subramanian@NikSubramanian

We got in vitro results today that show that we've found a first-in-class, potent drug that we hope will be able to treat a wide variety of cancers. Took us a couple of months (v. ~3-10 years usually) and tested just 30 compounds (v. 100k+). Still work to do, but screw cancer.
