We are a global leader in biosimulation science, technology, and consulting services for using Model-Informed Drug Development ("MIDD") in the global biopharmaceutical and biotech industry. MIDD is an approach that utilizes biological and statistical models derived from preclinical, clinical, and evidence data to inform decision-making in drug research and development, and commercialization. Biosimulation is a critical component of MIDD that uses computer-aided mathematical simulation of biological processes and systems to understand the action of a drug in a human body or a population of humans.
Biosimulation and hereby MIDD can increase the probability of success in bringing a new drug to market, accelerate its development and decrease the costs of drug development. There are many examples of currently approved drugs where models were successfully used in discovery, preclinical, first-in-human dose predictions, clinical trial simulations and protocol design, and for drug interaction label claims. Biosimulation is also used to support drug development beyond the approval stage; examples include determining formulation or manufacturing changes and label extensions. In addition, MIDD strategies are increasingly utilized to help predict commercial success, a critical part of the drug research and development process as new products must be both approved by regulators and adopted by the market.
The diagram below shows the different areas of expertise that come together to enable MIDD. Our organization has been purposefully designed to include all these capabilities to collectively enable a new model of drug research and development for our clients.
Our goal is to enable the life sciences industry to use data, modeling, and analytics to make better decisions during drug research, development and commercialization to increase productivity rates and vastly reduce development costs. The pharmaceutical industry spends more than $290 billion annually on research and development. On average, it takes 10-15 years and costs $6.2 billion to develop one new medicine, including the cost of failures. Drug development is necessarily a highly regulated process involving the collection of vast amounts of laboratory, clinical and evidence data, and there are many failures at every step along the way that add to total cost.
