AI IN DRUG DISCOVERY MARKET: GROWTH AND TRENDS
Drug discovery is a complex process that involves significant utilization of time and resources. As per several sources, on average, the entire drug development process (from initial proof-of-concept to commercial launch) takes around 10-15 years and capital investments worth USD 4-10 billion to develop a drug from concept to commercial launch. The early stages, including target discovery and lead molecule identification, play an important role in the success of the drug in both preclinical and clinical studies. Despite the advances in technology and improved understanding of biological systems, the drug discovery process is still considered to be inefficient. In order to optimize the ongoing and future drug development projects, stakeholders are exploring advanced technology solutions (such as artificial intelligence in drug discovery) in order to facilitate better decision-making during the various stages of drug discovery and development.
Artificial intelligence-based tools, such as big data analytics, deep learning, and machine learning help to collect data in real-time with seamless accuracy. This capability aids in reducing clinical failures and ensuring safety during the early stages of development. Notably, over 50% of investments have been made in this domain over the last two years, reflecting a rapid inclination towards AI-based tools for drug discovery and development. In fact, several industry players, namely Pfizer, Sanofi and Genentech, are already using different AI-enabled platforms for internal drug discovery efforts. Considering the ongoing interest and rising adoption of AI in drug discovery, it is anticipated that the market will expand at a steady rate during the forecast period.
