XtalPi joins hands with Singapore’s national platform for drug discovery and development to discover more effective treatment options for cancer patients worldwide. In this collaboration, XtalPi will leverage its quantum physics and AI-driven platform, while EDDC provides valuable insight and data on the novel NSCLC target, to accelerate the drug discovery process and propel the
Virtual screening involves the use of in silico methods to screen for potential small molecule binders of a target protein. This process usually starts with computationally docking a virtual library of chemical compounds to assess how the compounds interact with a defined binding site on the target protein. This is followed by scoring to predict

The World Health Organisation1 estimates that over 1.5 million people die from tuberculosis (TB) worldwide, making it the second leading infectious disease killer after COVID-19. Caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, TB is an infectious disease that has plagued humankind for more than 70,000 years2, with an estimated 10 million new cases of TB annually.
EDDC’s Biomarker team analysing samples from ETC-159 trialA made-in-Singapore cancer drug, ETC-159, has advanced into the dose expansion portion of its Phase 1B clinical trial. The Phase 1B dose expansion study tests the preliminary efficacy and safety of ETC-159 in a subset of genetically defined patients with microsatellite stable (MSS)1 cancers. MSS tumours have few
