e-therapeutics is a UK biotech using its proprietary computational biology and RNAi platforms to discover novel disease targets and therapies. The company is specifically focused on leveraging its expertise to design treatments targeting one cell type in the liver, hepatocytes.

The application of AI platforms in the pharmaceutical industry has evolved significantly and has matured to a stage where the first purely AI-generated candidates have entered clinical trials. We believe that platforms capable of designing novel, effective drugs and with the ability to identify new disease targets will offer an advantage over competitors.

e-therapeutics is leveraging its computational biology platform, HepNet, to discover novel hepatocyte-associated targets and develop novel siRNA medicines using its RNAi platform, GalOmic. Within HepNet, it utilises advanced AI systems, such as LLMs, to extract non-obvious insights across disparate data domains to streamline its drug discovery workflow. There continues to be a diverse range of hepatocyte-associated disease indications (not restricted to diseases of the liver) with untapped targets, providing scope for new treatments to have a unique offering. The company introduced preclinical assets ETX-291 and ETX-148 in late-2023, which silence genes implicated in cardiometabolic disease and haemophilia, respectively. In January 2024, the company introduced several more preclinical assets, including ETX-407 for dAMD, and ETX-312 for MASH; IND/CTA-enabling studies for these assets are to commence in due course.
