Forget the deal headlines. The real story in biopharma right now is ADC analytical automation — HPLC, mass spectrometry, and robotic process control being fused into a single automated pipeline. Here’s the process-level story of why, backed by what leading CDMOs are actually building. Why ADC Analytical Automation Is Suddenly Biopharma’s Hottest Topic For years, … Read more
Five companies now dominate the conversation around AI-designed medicine, and in the past seven months, three of them have hit milestones that used to take a decade: a Hong Kong stock exchange debut, a Nasdaq IPO, and a $2.1 billion funding round. This is a side-by-side look at where the leading AI drug discovery companies … Read more
What Is a CDMO, and Why Does Analytical Capability Matter So Much for ADCs? A Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) executes process development and GMP manufacturing on behalf of a biotech or pharmaceutical sponsor. The scope of that partnership has expanded well beyond production: leading CDMOs are now engaged from early CMC (Chemistry, Manufacturing … Read more
📌 TL;DR — Executive Summary What Changed: On July 1, 2026, the FDA expanded Casgevy’s approval from age 12+ down to age 2+. Why It Matters: This instantly adds ~5,500 eligible U.S. patients across 75+ authorized treatment centers. The Core Pivot: Because each autologous dose is custom-made from a patient’s own cells, manufacturing infrastructure—not drug … Read more
Key Summary As of 2026, AI Drug Discovery has moved past the “era of hypothesis” and into the “era of clinical proof.” The clearest example is Insilico Medicine’s Rentosertib, a drug candidate whose target discovery and molecular design were both AI-driven, which entered Phase 3 clinical trials in July 2026 for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). … Read more
