figure Ideation Analytics enables efficient Structure–Activity Relationship (SAR) analysis and reporting for small-molecule discovery programs. Leveraging matched molecular pair (MMP) analysis and R-group decomposition (RGD), it helps scientists explore SAR trends, analyze patent-derived datasets, compare chemical series, and generate publication-ready reports. Peptide Analytics extends these capabilities to peptide discovery. Scientists can compare peptide series, identify SAR hotspots, evaluate residue substitutions and non-natural amino acids, and visualize sequence–activity relationships across diverse peptide modalities, including linear, cyclic, branched, and chemically modified peptides. 3dpredict/Ab supports antibody discovery through large-scale prediction of antibody structures and developability-related physicochemical properties. Its ensemble-based approach accounts for molecular flexibility and enables early identification of liabilities, helping teams prioritize candidates with greater confidence. |

| AI and In Silico Technologies Transforming Drug Discovery | |
| Moderator: Reina Miyakawa (Patcore, Inc.) | |
This session will highlight cutting-edge applications of AI and in silico technologies across different domains of drug discovery research. In the first presentation, we will explore advanced in silico approaches that integrate clinical and multi-omics data to support biomarker discovery, patient stratification, and the identification of new indications for existing therapies. The speaker will present how data-driven analyses can generate biological insights and contribute to the advancement of precision medicine. The second presentation will focus on ChemAIRS, an AI-powered synthetic route design platform built upon large-scale chemical datasets and deep learning technologies. Beyond retrosynthetic route generation, ChemAIRS supports decision-making in chemical research through capabilities such as impurity prediction and reaction condition recommendation. The latest developments in AI-assisted chemical synthesis will be discussed. By showcasing advances in both biology and chemistry, this session aims to provide insights into how AI and in silico technologies are accelerating innovation in drug discovery and creating new opportunities for greater efficiency, productivity, and scientific success. |

| "Expanding Therapeutic Reach: Integrated In-Silico Approaches for Biomarker-Guided Patient Stratification and Indication Expansion" | |
The increasing complexity of cancer biology and the expanding availability of clinical and multi-omics data have created new opportunities to refine patient stratification and extend the therapeutic potential of existing treatments. Realizing this potential, however, requires computational approaches that can integrate diverse datasets while preserving biological relevance. We present an integrated in-silico framework that transforms heterogeneous multimodal datasets into standardized, analysis-ready resources through systematic curation, harmonization, quality control, and data integration, providing a reliable foundation for downstream analyses. Machine learning and statistical approaches are then applied to identify predictive and prognostic biomarker signatures associated with treatment response and clinical outcome. These signatures enable biologically interpretable patient stratification, distinguish likely responders from non-responders, and provide insight into molecular mechanisms underlying therapeutic response and resistance. Biomarkers validated within a specific disease indication are subsequently evaluated across other diseases that share similar molecular characteristics, providing an evidence-based strategy for identifying additional patient populations that may benefit from existing therapies. Complementary analyses, including target identification, in-silico perturbation studies, and drug repurposing assessments, further place these findings within a mechanistic context and support the generation of testable therapeutic hypotheses. By integrating data-driven biomarker discovery with biological interpretation, this framework provides a systematic approach to patient stratification and indication expansion, supporting more informed therapeutic decision-making and advancing the application of precision oncology across diverse disease settings. |

Synthetic route design is a persistent bottleneck in molecular R&D. Traditional route planning depends strongly on individual chemist experience, which can restrict route diversity, prolong development cycles, and increase experimental cost. This limitation is becoming more critical as pharmaceutical and materials research demand faster molecular iteration. |
