Orbis Medicines, a leader in oral macrocycle drug discovery, and the Danish Center for AI Innovation (DCAI) today announced that Orbis has begun using Denmark’s first AI supercomputer, Gefion, which is owned and operated by DCAI. Gefion will allow the company to accelerate its mission of developing oral alternatives to widely used biologics and targeting important intra- and extracellular proteins that are currently difficult or impossible to drug with orally bioavailable compounds.
Orbis is pioneering the systematic discovery and development of targeted, orally available macrocycles for diseases and targets traditionally treated with biologics. The company develops compounds known as nCycles, which can address a wide range of validated protein targets with unique oral bioavailability and membrane permeability features.
