  • Top 100 AI Leaders in Drug Discovery and Advanced Healthcare Introduction
    Top 100 AI Leaders in Drug Discovery and Advanced Healthcare www.dka.global Introduction Over the last several years, the pharmaceutical and healthcare organizations have developed a strong interest toward applying artificial intelligence (AI) in various areas, ranging from medical image analysis and elaboration of electronic health records (EHRs) to more basic research like building disease ontologies, preclinical drug discovery, and clinical trials. The demand for the ML/AI technologies, as well as for ML/AI talent, is growing in pharmaceutical and healthcare industries and driving the formation of a new interdisciplinary industry (‘data-driven healthcare’). Consequently, there is a growing number of AI-driven startups and emerging companies offering technology solutions for drug discovery and healthcare. Another important source of advanced expertise in AI for drug discovery and healthcare comes from top technology corporations (Google, Microsoft, Tencent, etc), which are increasingly focusing on applying their technological resources for tackling health-related challenges, or providing technology platforms on rent bases for conducting research analytics by life science professionals. Some of the leading pharmaceutical giants, like GSK, AstraZeneca, Pfizer and Novartis, are already making steps towards aligning their internal research workflows and development strategies to start embracing AI-driven digital transformation at scale. However, the pharmaceutical industry at large is still lagging behind in adopting AI, compared to more traditional consumer industries -- finance, retail etc. The above three main forces are driving the growth in the AI implementation in pharmaceutical and advanced healthcare research, but the overall success depends strongly on the availability of highly skilled interdisciplinary leaders, able to innovate, organize and guide in this direction.

  • Solving the Problem of New Uses by Creating Incentives for Private Industry to Repurpose Off-Patent Drugs
    SOLVING THE PROBLEM OF NEW USES DRAFT 9/15/14 SOLVING THE PROBLEM OF NEW USES BY CREATING INCENTIVES FOR PRIVATE INDUSTRY TO REPURPOSE OFF-PATENT DRUGS Benjamin N. Roin* Sept. 15, 2014 Abstract One of the most dramatic public-policy failures affecting biomedical research is the lack of incentives for industry to develop new therapeutic uses (“indications”) for off-patent drugs—generally known as “the problem of new uses.” Recent technological advances have allowed researchers to identify hundreds of potential new indications for older drugs that could address critical unmet medical needs. And researchers are poised to discover hundreds more. Developing new uses for FDA-approved drugs (known as “drug repurposing”) is much faster, cheaper, and less risky than developing new drugs, and therefore offers what may be the single most promising avenue for delivering new medical treatments to the public. Many commentators argue that a viable business model to support drug repurposing could solve the pharmaceutical industry’s protracted “productivity crisis,” and that it would provide the NIH with a pathway across the proverbial “Valley of Death” in biomedical research. Unfortunately, that business model does not exist. Pharmaceutical companies invariably lose interest in developing new uses for drugs once generics enter the market. The prior scholarship on this problem attributes it to a gap in the patent-based incentives for drug development. But the government already offers patent rights for new uses of existing drugs, which could provide the appropriate incentives for developing those new medical treatments. On paper, these new-use patents give pharmaceutical companies the right to charge payers when physicians prescribe an off-patent drug for a new use without preventing patients from using low-cost generics for the drug’s older, unpatented uses.
