GSK has agreed to pay Relation Therapeutics up to $110 million in an expanded artificial intelligence partnership, according to Endpoints News. The deal, announced Thursday, builds on an existing collaboration in which Relation applies AI modeling to drug discovery for GSK.
Relation’s leadership has characterized the expanded pact as one that will deliver, in the company’s words, “transformationally different success rates” in drug development. Endpoints News reports the agreement calls for Relation to build on its computational modeling work as part of the collaboration with GSK.
The $110 million figure represents the potential value of the expanded deal. Endpoints News did not report a breakdown of upfront versus milestone-based payments in the material supplied.
GSK is among several major pharmaceutical companies that have turned to artificial intelligence tools in recent years as they seek to improve the odds of successful drug development, a process that remains costly and prone to failure across the industry.
Endpoints News, a publication covering biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry news, first reported the expanded agreement. Additional specifics of the partnership, including which discovery programs Relation’s AI models will address, were not detailed in Endpoints’ report as supplied to this desk.
The observatory will continue monitoring developments in this collaboration as further reporting becomes available.
