Simulations Plus, Inc. (“Simulations Plus”), a leading provider of cheminformatics, biosimulation, simulation-enabled performance and intelligence solutions, and medical communications to the biopharma industry, announced that experimental results of its artificial intelligence-driven drug design (AIDD) collaboration with the Institute of Medical Biology of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IMB PAS) have been published in the American Chemical Society (ACS) Medical Chemistry Letters . Simulations Plus and IMB PAS launched their collaboration in 2023 to use the AIDD module in ADMET Predictor® to design novel RORγ/RORγT ligands, molecules that impact gene expression related to inflammation and immune responses. Within three months, the two teams had developed models to predict RORγ/RORγT ligand potency, designed potential ligands simultaneously optimized for potency, in vivo absorption, synthesizability, and ADMET risk, synthesized compounds, and completed initial in vitro potency and toxicity testing. The recently published results show that the vast majority of compounds tested had strong potency for the target that was close to or better
