Insilico Medicine CEO on the company’s AI philosophy

I’ve always been a little confused about Insilico Medicine, one of the biggest and longest-running AI drug companies. I’ve never fully understood what it does or its popularity. But earlier this week, the company inked a deal with Eli Lilly for $115 million upfront and $2.75 billion in total potential payments.

STAT+: Gilead to buy cancer biotech Tubulis for more than $3 billion

In a move that will grow its oncology pipeline, Gilead Sciences is spending more than $3 billion to buy the German biotech Tubulis, the companies said Tuesday.

The deal includes an upfront payment of $3.15 billion and up to $1.85 billion more if certain milestones are reached. It also highlights both the therapeutic and commercial promise of antibody-drug conjugates, the next-generation chemotherapy treatments that the privately held Tubulis is developing.

The two companies had already been working together on a multiple myeloma CAR-T therapy that could be approved later this year. Gilead last month also announced that it was buying Ouro Therapeutics, which is focused on drugs for autoimmune disease, for up to $2.18 billion.
