Exscientia is focused on designing fundamentally better drugs – faster. The company’s artificial intelligence (AI)-driven functional precision medicine platform enables a "patient-first" approach by integrating primary human tissue samples into early target and drug discovery research. Earlier this year, the next-generation platform, which aims to reinvent the way drugs are discovered and developed, was clinically proven to guide treatment selection and improve cancer treatment outcomes, in the landmark EXALT-1 study.
EXALT-1 demonstrated the ability of one of Exscientia’s AI-discovered medicines to improve cancer treatment outcomes, marking the first time a functional precision oncology platform improved patient outcomes in an interventional clinical study. Today, the live tissue technology used in that study is a core component underpinning Exscientia’s end-to-end platform, which has discovered the first three AI-designed molecules to enter clinical trials, dramatically cutting the time and cost required to generate novel molecules with the potential to become approved medicines.
"Sincere thanks to the Galien Foundation and Business France for this incredible honour. Exscientia is humbled to receive this recognition and grateful to our incredible team whose vision made it possible," said Exscientia founder and CEO Andrew Hopkins, DPhil. "This award is a recognition of the enormous potential that AI holds to transform how our industry discovers and develops the right drug for the right patient. This award recognized the potential of our AI driven precision medicine platform to truly bring the vision of personalised medicine to the benefit of the patient. The day is coming when all medicines will be discovered and developed by harnessing the power of AI. At Exscientia, we are proud to be pioneering the way forward."
