    Sep 13 2023
    Artificially intelligent tools are revolutionizing nearly every stage of the drug discovery process, offering substantial potential to reshape the speed and economics of the industry. As the drug discovery and preclinical stages speed up and potentially produce more drugs to test in the clinical trial phase, how do clinical researchers prepare and respond to these challenging opportunities?   In this episode, Toban Zolman, Chief Executive Officer at Kivo will share his thoughts on how AI-enabled successes in drug discovery will affect clinical operations and regulatory operations. We will discuss how advancements in technology and data analysis are reshaping the way we conduct clinical research.   --------------------------------------------------------   Episode Transcript: http://traffic.libsyn.com/thelatestdose/The_Latest_Dose-S01_E43.mp3   00;00;00;00 - 00;00;40;25 Hi, everyone, and welcome to the Latest Dose, the podcast that explores the depth of innovation and human compassion in clinical research. I'm your host, Katherine Vandebelt, global vice president of Clinical Innovation at Oracle Health Sciences. Traditionally drug discovery is a notoriously time consuming and expensive process. A host of artificial intelligence tools, AI, are said to be revolutionizing nearly every stage of the drug discovery process, offering substantial potential to reshape the speed and economics of the industry.   00;00;41;02 - 00;01;11;13 According to the Boston Consulting Group, as of March 2022, “ biotech companies are using an AI first approach had more than 150 small molecule drugs in discovery and more than 15 already in clinical trials”. Once the drug discovery and preclinical stages speed up and potentially produce more drugs to test in the clinical trial phase, how do we prepare and respond to this exciting new and challenging opportunity?   00;01;11;15 - 00;01;42;17 Today, our guest will share his thoughts on how AI enabled successes in drug discovery will affect clinical operations and regulatory operations. We will discuss how advancements in technology and data analysis are reshaping the way we conduct clinical research. Joining me today is Toban Zolman, Chief Executive Officer of Kivo. Toban has 20 years of experience in regulatory and clinical operations, drafting some of the first guidelines for electronic submission at Image Solutions.   00;01;42;19 - 00;02;09;06 Toban has consulted with 45 of the top 50 pharma companies in the world. After working in regulatory, Toban ran product teams for several tech companies. Toban has been at the forefront of multiple tech revolutions, such as cloud computing and the Internet of Things. Toban thinks the time has come for clinical trial management to level up. Toban, it is great to speak with you today.   00;02;09;06 - 00;02;45;17 Welcome to the Latest Dose. Yeah, thank you. Great to speak with you as well. In the intro I mentioned that you believe the time has come for clinical trial management to level up. What do you mean by that? Well, let me give you some context maybe on where that comment is coming from. So, I spent a chunk of my career helping tier one pharma transition to electronic submissions and kind of the promise of electronic submissions was improved process, improved visibility, faster review times by regulatory agencies.   00;02;45;19 - 00;03;22;16 And the way that we went about that as an industry, you know, 15 to 20 years ago, was really to take this new challenge, process challenge, of managing a ten X increase in the amount of documents going back and forth to a regulatory agency and controlling that incredibly tightly. And so literally, you know, I spent years and in windowless conference rooms with committees trying to figure out how to manage every aspect of increasingly complex process.   00;03;22;18 - 00;04;03;13 And honestly, it was soul crushing. So, I left the industry and spent over a decade working in other industries that were kind of on the edge of major transformations. E-commerce, social, cloud, IoT, and eventually circled back to life sciences. And I think the thing that struck me the most as I came back into life sciences and started to talk to clinical and regulatory leaders who were dealing with all of these advancements in how clinical trials operate, as this was kind of the same song, new verse.   00;04;03;16 - 00;04;32;03 The pace of clinical trials was accelerating. The complexity of tools was increasing. And the number of assets that they were having to manage that resulted from those advancements was also increasing.  And the approach to managing all of that was to just have leaders in life sciences, you know, these pharma companies just literally tighten their grip on the process even more.   00;04;32;05 - 00;05;14;08 And that's just not a model that works, and it's not a model that any other industry has embraced. And so, really, I think what we've really focused on, at Kivo, is helping companies...

    Ep. 42: Creating drugs at the speed of AI
    Aug 3 2023
    Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the most discussed technologies across all industries. Life science professionals working in the pharmaceutical industry strive to improve people’s lives tackling incredibly complex diseases. Drug development is often perceived as slow. As the pharma industry looks to improve the drug development process AI promises nothing less than a revolution.   Can AI help speed up the drug development process? Identify new drug molecules that have so far eluded scientists?   Will AI–designed medicines be safe for people? Have the desired effect on the disease? Meet the rigorous regulatory standards to actually be approved for human use?   In this episode, Andreas Busch, Ph.D., Chief Innovation Officer at Absci will answer these questions and shares the value generative-AI is providing drug development today.   --------------------------------------------------------   Episode Transcript: 00;00;00;00 - 00;00;31;24 Hi, everyone, and welcome to the Latest Dose, the podcast that explores the depth of innovation and human compassion in clinical research. I'm your host, Katherine Vandebelt, global vice president of Clinical Innovation at Oracle Health Sciences. Artificial Intelligence, AI, is one of the most popular technologies on the planet, and I find it referenced in most, if not all, industries.   00;00;31;26 - 00;00;59;16 Those of us working in the pharmaceutical industry strive to improve people's lives. Can AI help scientists develop better medicines faster? Human bodies are incredibly complex. Drug development is slow. Since I've been engaged in drug development, many people, teams, organizations, and companies have been working tirelessly to improve the drug development process, the promise, is nothing more than a revolution for the pharmaceutical industry.   00;00;59;19 - 00;01;26;21 The March 8th, 2023 Politico article states “nearly 270 companies are working in AI driven drug discovery”.  Let's start learning more about AI driven drug discovery and discuss if or when the promise of AI will be realized.  Can AI help speed up the drug development process? Identify new drug molecules that have so far eluded scientists?   00;01;26;23 - 00;02;02;02 Can AI-designed medicines, be safe for people? Have the desire effect on the disease?  Meet the rigorous regulatory standards to actually be approved for human use? You know, many of these questions can be answered today with my guest, Andreas Busch, Ph.D. Chief Information Officer at Absci.  Andreas brings substantial R&D expertise to Absci’s leadership, a world renowned leader in drug discovery and has led R&D efforts for some of the globe's top pharma companies, including Sanofi, Bayer, and Shire.   00;02;02;05 - 00;02;37;05 Andreas’ leadership has resulted in over ten commercial drugs starting from bench to FDA approval, with several more in late stage clinical development. Andreas holds the title of Extraordinary Professor of Pharmacology at the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt, Germany, where he also received his Ph.D. in pharmacology. Andreas loves, real football a.k.a soccer, enjoys riding his motorcycle through Alps and playing with his beloved dogs Zorro.   00;02;37;07 - 00;03;04;28 Welcome, Andreas. Thank you for making the time to speak with me today. Hey, it's a pleasure talking to you Katherine. So, Andreas I have been taught that artificial intelligence, referred to as AI, are computer intelligence programs that can handle real-time problems and help organizations and everyday people achieve their goal. And AI is obviously a topic of discussion these days and getting way more attention with the release of the articles around ChatGPT.   00;03;04;28 - 00;03;33;22 Today I'd like to focus our discussion on generative AI, but I thought it would be helpful if you could share with me what's important for me to actually know about this type of AI. I'm glad to talk about it. I guess ChatGPT was certainly a breakthrough in AI and the use of AI for a general population and everybody knows now what AI can do through a GPT.   00;03;33;26 - 00;04;07;07 And if you look at generative AI, what we're trying to accomplish simply is to have artificial intelligence supporting us, creating drugs. And as you know, with ChatGPT, you have to give ChatGPT the right prompt in order to get ChatGPT to do the job for you. And this is similar with our generative AI. We need to give the prompt, which is we need to give our models the target, the mechanism we want to work on.   00;04;07;10 - 00;04;43;12 And then the model produces for us, in our case for Absci, a de novo designed antibody. So that's fascinating. How long have you been developing this approach with these prompts and these programs and actually been using this at your organization? I mean, Absci is actually a company which started as a cell line development company and realized then that for AI to be very productive, you need a ton of ...
