Better drugs, faster

About us

Exscientia is a global pharmatech company using patient-first artificial intelligence (AI) to discover better drugs, faster. Our mission is to encode, automate and transform every stage of the drug design and development process, by combining the latest AI techniques with experimental innovation, to enable the design of patient centric drug candidates with an improved probability of success. Our validated platform has delivered the first three AI-designed drugs to enter clinical trials and is the first AI system proven to improve clinical outcomes in oncology. We’ve significantly accelerated pre-clinical drug discovery, with 10x productivity improvement in delivering a drug candidate compared with industry standards. By actively applying AI to precision engineer medicines more rapidly and efficiently, we allow the best ideas of science to rapidly become the best medicines for patients.

    I am excited to present a poster entitled “Powering Rapid Translation of HTS Outputs to AI-driven Drug Discovery Programmes” at the 36th EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics. Xcellomics is a collaboration between Exscientia and the University of Oxford with the mission to accelerate the translation of novel biological discoveries into cancer drug candidates. Our poster highlights an example screen showing the process used to rapidly transition from functional genomic screens to therapeutic target ID and validation, then automated chemical hit ID. If you are attending, please stop by PB 402! #ENASymp24

    Don’t miss Rin Okumura presenting our poster at ENA today, (Cat #250, Poster board 238) showcasing the latest preclinical data for our highly differentiated LSD1 inhibitor EXS74539. The poster details the identification of PD biomarkers related to ‘539 treatment, as well as ‘539 efficacy in a preclinical AML model with limited impact on platelet levels.    For anyone not at ENA, you can download the poster from our website: https://bit.ly/ENA_LSD1  #ENASymp24 #drugdiscovery #oncology

    I’m delighted to present our latest LSD1 inhibitor preclinical data at the 36th EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics today. Our poster highlights how combining human primary samples as a disease-relevant model system with drug perturbation experiments (transcriptomics, high-content imaging) can help identify novel PD biomarkers. Integrating multiple data levels with matched ex vivo sensitivity to '539 enhances the translational significance of these biomarkers, while preserving and understanding inter-patient variability in response to treatment with '539. In vivo experiments confirmed the upregulation of the biomarker candidates in response to '539 treatment, supporting the concept of introducing relevant model systems early in drug discovery to help provide clinically relevant preclinical data. If you’re attending ENA 2024, feel free to reach out or stop by PB238. #ENASymp24

    Senior Scientist at Exscientia

    I'm excited to be presenting a poster titled: "Hands-off Screening with Cells: Automating a Cellular Biosensor for Streamlined and Efficient Hit Compound Screening" at Discovery On Target today. Traditional manual cellular screening assays often demand substantial scientist time and consumable resources, while being prone to variability in transfection efficiency, which can affect data reproducibility. Our poster showcases how we transitioned a continuous culture screening assay to an "assay-ready" cell format and leveraged Exscientia's automation suite to deliver an end-to-end automated assay, freeing up valuable scientist resource and increasing hit compound screening efficiency. I'm excited to share our work, connect with fellow scientists, and discuss the latest trends in emerging targets and technologies. If you're attending, feel free to stop by and say hello! #Exscientia #BostonDOT24
