While saving details for the talk, Zhavoronkov hints that he plans to unveil news related to the Company’s lead AI-discovered and AI-designed drug for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, the first such drug to reach Phase 1 clinical trials. The Company has an additional 30 drugs in its internal pipeline available for partnering and licensing, for indications including cancer, fibrosis, immunology, and COVID-19.

Morgan conference, Insilico announced a partnership with Fosun Pharma, and soon after the Company nominated a preclinical candidate for Fosun’s QPCTL program and initiated IND-enabling studies. In November 2022, Insilico signed its largest partnership deal to date, a strategic research collaboration with Sanofi worth up to $1.2B.

In addition to updates on its lead candidate, Zhavoronkov will share news about the Company’s AI-powered fully autonomous robotics lab which is scheduled to open soon and will further strengthen its Pharma.AI platform with validating experiments and data.
