Applied BioMath, LLC Announces Collaboration with Monte Rosa Therapeutics for Systems Pharmacology Modeling in Cereblon-based Molecular Glue Degraders

On January 25, 2022 Applied BioMath (www.appliedbiomath.com), the industry-leader in applying systems pharmacology and mechanistic modeling, simulation, and analysis to de-risk drug research and development, reported their ongoing collaboration with Monte Rosa Therapeutics to develop a cellular systems pharmacology model for cereblon (CRBN)-based molecular glue degraders (MGDs) targeting GSPT1 (Press release, Applied BioMath, JAN 25, 2022, View Source [SID1234606794]). The model will be used to predict and explain CRBN-based GSPT1 target degradation in various cellular disease settings and to answer mechanistic questions.

"We chose to work with Applied BioMath based on their scientific expertise across various modalities and disease areas," said Sharon Townson, PhD, Chief Technology Officer at Monte Rosa Therapeutics. "Our hope is that the cellular systems pharmacology model we develop will accelerate our understanding of small molecule MGDs and we look forward to leveraging this advantage."

Applied BioMath employs a rigorous fit-for-purpose model development process which quantitatively integrates knowledge about therapeutics with an understanding of its mechanism of action in the context of human disease mechanisms. Their approach employs proprietary algorithms and software that were designed specifically for systems pharmacology model development, simulation, and analysis. "A fit-for-purpose mechanistic model allows our partners to gain better insight into their therapeutic’s mechanism of action in various disease conditions more quickly than with traditional experimental approaches," said John Burke, PhD, Co-Founder, President, and CEO of Applied BioMath. "Monte Rosa Therapeutics is doing novel work and we’re excited to partner with them on this project."
