NAPLES, Fla. and CAMBRIDGE, United Kingdom, Jan. 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Conduit Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: CDT) (“Conduit” or the “Company”), today is pleased to announce the completion of the first phase of its strategic collaboration with Sarborg Limited. This partnership was initiated in December 2024 to integrate an advanced artificial intelligence and cybernetics technology (“AI”) into the Company’s operations, marking a transformative step in how Conduit would develop and deliver drug development. By leveraging AI, the Company is seeking to streamline drug repurposing, accelerate drug discovery, optimize solid-form identification, and enhance the precision and efficiency of clinical trial monitoring. These advancements are expected to shorten development timelines, reduce costs, and improve the predictability of successful outcomes.

Conduit and Sarborg have completed the initial milestones including the Teach-in Sessions and Proprietary Inputs Validation, tailored to Conduit’s portfolio needs. These initial workstreams shape the integration of AI-driven processes to further strengthen Conduit’s ability to advance its proprietary assets, including AZD1656, AZD5904, AZD5658, CDT1656, and its AZD1656 cocrystals, with greater efficiency. While Conduit remains focused on delivering impactful therapies to patients through its proposed Phase 2 clinical trials in auto-immune disorders, the Company continually endeavours to remain at the forefront of innovation in pharmaceutical development.

Developing the promising success of the collaboration with Sarborg, Conduit expects AI-driven processes to minimize resource-intensive steps, leading to significant cost savings and fostering the exploration of novel therapeutic avenues previously limited by traditional methods. Building on the foundation work now completed, Conduit will continue to position itself to lead the application of advanced technology within the pharmaceutical sector, ensuring a future defined by faster, more cost-effective, and innovative drug development.

About Conduit Pharmaceuticals

Conduit is a dynamic, multi-asset clinical stage, life science company delivering an efficient model for compound development. Conduit both acquires and funds the development of Phase 2-ready assets, is building an integrated and advanced platform-driven approach powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and cybernetics, and seeking an exit through third-party license deals following successful clinical trials. Led by a highly experienced team of pharmaceutical executives including Dr. David Tapolczay and Dr. Freda Lewis-Hall, this novel approach is a departure from the traditional pharma/biotech business model of taking assets through regulatory approval.
