Eli Lilly, OpenAI Strike Collaboration Agreement Seeking to Discover New Antimicrobials to Fight Drug-Resistant Bacteria

Don Tracy, Associate Editor The collaboration with OpenAI is part of Lilly’s strategy to combat drug-resistant pathogens through its Social Impact Venture Capital Portfolio. Eli Lilly and Company and OpenAI have agreed to terms on a deal to leverage generative artificial intelligence (AI) for discovering new antimicrobials to combat drug-resistant bacteria. According to Lilly, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant risk throughout the world, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Additionally, the misuse and overuse of antimicrobials in humans, animals, and plants are the primary influences for developing drug-resistant pathogens, amplifying AMR in the process.1 “Our collaboration with OpenAI represents a groundbreaking step forward in the fight against the growing but overlooked threat of antimicrobial resistance,” said Diogo Rau, EVP, chief information and digital officer, Lilly, in a press release. “Generative AI opens a new opportunity to accelerate the discovery of novel antimicrobials and the development of custom, purpose-built technologies ...

New Urine Test Improves Accuracy for Early Detection of Bladder Cancer in Patients with Hematuria

Blood in the urine, known as hematuria, is often one of the earliest signs of bladder cancer. Although cystoscopy is recommended for patients presenting with both microscopic and gross hematuria, the detection rate for bladder cancer in these patients varies widely from 2% to 20%, leading to many unnecessary procedures. Additionally, due to the invasive nature of cystoscopy and low patient compliance, many cases of hematuria, especially microhematuria, are not promptly examined, missing early detection opportunities. This often results in diagnoses at more advanced stages, increasing both physical and economic burdens. To address these challenges, researchers have developed a simplified DNA-based urine test to enhance the early detection accuracy of bladder cancer in patients with hematuria and reduce reliance on more invasive cystoscopies. The potential of aberrant DNA methylation as a diagnostic biomarker for various cancers, including bladder cancer, has been recognized for some time. Researchers from Genomictree, Inc. (Daejeon, ...

Customizable AI Tool Helps Pathologists Identify Diseased Cells

Pathologists are tasked with examining body fluids or tissues to diagnose diseases, a process that involves distinguishing rare disease-indicating cells from thousands of normal cells under a microscope. This skill requires extensive training. Artificial intelligence (AI) can assist by learning to differentiate between healthy and diseased cells from digital pathology images. However, traditional AI tools, once trained, lack flexibility. They are designed for specific tasks, such as identifying cancer cells in one organ but not another, and might not align perfectly with a pathologist’s specific needs in different scenarios. Now, a collaborative team of computer scientists and physicians has developed a new AI tool that not only identifies diseased cells but also adapts to a pathologist’s requirements. Developed at Stanford Medicine (Stanford, CA, USA), the tool, named nuclei.io, functions like a human assistant that evolves with feedback. Starting with the basic function of recognizing different cell types by their nuclei, ...

FDA Accepts Otsuka and Lundbeck’s Supplemental New Drug Application for Brexpiprazole to Treat Adults with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

Don Tracy, Associate Editor Results from three randomized clinical trials show safety and efficacy of a brexpiprazole-sertraline combination in adult patients with post-traumatic stress disorder. The FDA has accepted Otsuka and Lunbdeck’s supplemental New Drug Application for brexpiprazole in combination with sertraline for the treatment of adults with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The sNDA is supported by data from three randomized clinical trials that evaluated the safety and efficacy of the brexpiprazole-sertraline combination in adult patients with PTSD.1 “[PTSD] is one of the most common mental health disorders in the United States. Approximately 13 million adults in the US have PTSD during a given year, and between seven to eight out of every 100 will experience PTSD at some point in their lives,” said John Kraus, MD, PhD, EVP, chief medical officer, Otsuka, in a press release. “This is a significant development, and we look forward to continuing our efforts ...

Chiatai Tianqing’s Liraglutide Approved for Listing, Formally Entering the Field of Biological Drugs to Control Glucose

On June 25, Chiatai Tianqing received the Certificate of Drug Registration approved by the State Drug Administration, and the company’s liraglutide injection was approved to be listed in the market, which is used for controlling blood glucose in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This is the ninth new product (including new indications) approved by Chiatai Tianqing since this year. The approval of this product also marks Chiatai Tianqing’s formal entry into the field of biopharmaceutical glycemic control. Liraglutide is a long-acting analog of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) with 97% homology to natural GLP-1, an endogenous enteric insulinotropic hormone that enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. In addition to pancreatic islet cells, GLP-1 receptors are widely present in gastrointestinal, lung, brain, kidney, cardiovascular system and other organs and tissues. Liraglutide prolongs the half-life of GLP-1 on the basis of retaining the physiological action characteristics of GLP-1, and needs to ...

UK dementia organisations publish new manifesto ahead of general election

Alzheimer’s Society, Dementia UK, Alzheimer’s Research UK, the UK Dementia Research Institute (UK DRI) and Alzheimer Scotland have collaborated to create a new manifesto for dementia, ahead of the 2024 general election (4 July). The new manifesto, ‘Dementia: a manifesto’, calls on the next UK government to make dementia a key health priority in the UK. Affecting 982,000 people in the UK, dementia is a term for the impaired ability to remember, think or make decisions in day-to-day life. There is currently no cure available and the care and treatment options that currently exist for patients living with the neurodegenerative disease are often disjointed, inaccessible and inadequate. The new manifestos call on the next UK government to better understand how to prevent, reduce and delay dementia; increase access to diagnosis and treatment; help people living with dementia navigate support groups; create a care system that works for everyone; and invest ...
