AQEMIA Achieves Research Milestone Against Undruggable Target in Immuno-Oncology with Servier

Share

AQEMIA, a leading company in generative-AI-driven drug discovery, announces the achievement of a research milestone in its collaboration with Servier, an international independent pharmaceutical company, to address an undruggable target in immuno-oncology.

Based on AQEMIA ‘s quantum and statistical physics-based calculations, and within the span of a few months, a series of molecules experimentally active on an undruggable target in immuno-oncology have been successfully identified. This milestone triggers an undisclosed payment to AQEMIA.

"Our teams are very proud of this achievement that demonstrates the power of AQEMIA's cutting-edge generative AI and deep physics in creating novel, patentable molecules to meet therapeutic needs that are still immense, particularly in the field of immuno-oncology. Within the framework of our collaboration with Servier, we have reached the stage where a series of molecules are subsequently proven impactful in vitro and in vivo assays. " said Maximilien Levesque, PhD, CEO and Co-founder of AQEMIA.

This critical milestone is a continuation of Servier and AQEMIA’s successful partnership program, initiated in December 2021, to accelerate drug candidate discovery in immuno-oncology using artificial intelligence and deep physics.

AQEMIA has worked on more than a dozen in-house therapeutic programs in oncology and immuno-oncology, as well as in new therapeutic areas such as immunology, inflammation and diseases of the central nervous system. To date, AQEMIA’s three most advanced programs are being tested against cancers in animals.

About AQEMIA
AQEMIA is a next-gen techbio generating one of the world's fastest-growing drug discovery pipeline. Our mission is to design fast many innovative drug candidates for critical diseases. Our differentiation lies in our unique quantum and statistical mechanics algorithms to power a generative artificial intelligence designing novel drug candidates, without the need to train on experimental data. We already delivered several drug discovery successes in internal pipeline as well as in collaboration with Pharma companies - most advanced programs being currently in vivo optimization.

New Esri Press Book by Jack Dangermond Explores Creating a Better Future through Modern GIS17.7.2024 21:46:00 EEST | Press release

Esri, the global leader in location intelligence, today announced the publication next month of The Power of Where: A Geographic Approach to the World's Greatest Challenges. Written by Esri president Jack Dangermond with a dedicated Esri team and numerous contributors, this important new book explores the geographic approach—a way of solving problems using spatial analysis to perceive and understand patterns ranging from wildlife migration and rising seas to urban planning and food production. According to Dangermond, sustainability begins with geography. "I believed this when we started Esri, and I'm even more convinced today," says Dangermond. "GIS [geographic information system technology] provides a platform for addressing problems, exploring alternatives, designing solutions, and sharing them in a visual way that inspires action." The Power of Where shows through maps and stories how the growing GIS community is facing humanity's big challenges, including climate change, hunger, w

Egle Therapeutics to share preclinical data for its first autoimmune disease program, EGL-003, with an oral presentation at the 2024 Promise of Interleukin-2 Therapy Meeting17.7.2024 19:00:00 EEST | Press release

Egle Therapeutics, a biotechnology company focused on advancing the next generation of regulatory T cell-focused therapies for oncology and auto-immunity, will deliver an oral presentation at The Promise of Interleukin-2 Therapy meeting taking place in Paris from September 4th to 7th, 2024. The presentation, entitled “EGL-003, a novel IL-2 mutein to selectively expand and activate regulatory T cells and improve therapeutic efficacy in autoimmune disease”, will show evidence that EGL-003, a non-targeted Fc-fused IL-2 agonist mutein, selectively binds to regulatory T cells (Treg) and induces Treg IL-2 signaling. The resulting increase of Treg frequencies was observed in vitro and in different mouse models. Accordingly, EGL-003 significantly improved clinical, macroscopic, and histological parameters in a DSS-induced colitis mouse model with expansion of tissue-resident Tregs. EGL-003 is the first drug candidate being developed for treatment of autoimmune diseases in Egle’s pipeline and h
