Context & Impact
Context
A PharmaCo developed AI-enabled indication finding capability, scaled to 10 immunology and neurology asset pipelines, resulting in a 2pp PTRS increase.
But the current process was time-consuming, un-automated, and challenged decision-making within different therapeutic areas.
