AI tool may help doctors select best drugs for COVID patients

pharmaphorum

Researchers in the US have developed an artificial intelligence-based tool that is able to predict COVID-19 symptoms and suggest which FDA-approved drugs might be used to treat patients. It could also be made more powerful by incorporating personal genetic information and gene expression profiles in tissues such as the lungs, they suggest.

EHA 2023: Kura Oncology’s menin inhibitor ziftomenib shows impressive Phase I results

Pharmaceutical Technology

Ziftomenib targets the menin-KMT2a protein-protein interaction that may occur in patients with KMT2ar or NPM1m genetic alterations. The aberrant protein complex is essential for regulating leukaemia-promoting gene expression. Thus, targeting menin may be an effective strategy for patients with high unmet needs.
