Drug repurposing, or drug repositioning, investigates existing medications for new therapeutic uses. This approach offers numerous advantages over traditional drug discovery, including reduced development costs, shorter timelines, and the potential for improved patient outcomes. CD ComputaBio leverages cutting-edge computational techniques and extensive pharmacological data to identify innovative repurposing opportunities.
AI is a powerful tool in drug repurposing, enabling faster and more efficient identification of new therapeutic uses for existing medications. By overcoming existing challenges through better data and collaboration, AI can play a crucial role in the future of drug development.
At CD ComputaBio, we provide a comprehensive range of drug repurposing services tailored to meet the unique needs of our clients. Our approach combines high-throughput computational methods, deep learning, and expert insights to yield actionable results. Here are some of the key services we offer.
In Silico Drug Repurposing Screening
Utilizing advanced computational models, we conduct high-throughput screening of existing drug libraries to identify candidates for new therapeutic uses.
Biological Activity Prediction
We employ machine learning algorithms to predict the biological activity of existing compounds against new targets. This includes various prediction models based on historical data and biological mechanisms.
Target Identification and Validation
Identifying and validating new therapeutic targets is crucial for successful drug repurposing. Our team applies virtual screening to elucidate potential targets linked to existing drugs.
Safety and Toxicity Assessments
