• Insilico Medicine's ISM5411, an AI-designed gut-restricted PHD inhibitor, demonstrates favorable safety and tolerability in Phase I trials for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
• The trials validate ISM5411's gut-restrictive properties, showing minimal systemic exposure and a high fecal/plasma ratio, potentially reducing systemic side effects.
• Insilico plans to advance ISM5411 to a Phase II proof-of-concept study in active ulcerative colitis patients in the second half of 2025.
• The rapid development of ISM5411, facilitated by Insilico's Chemistry42 AI platform, highlights the potential of AI in accelerating drug discovery and development.
