Galapagos NV, ZoBio BV, Pyxis Discovery BV and Leiden University collaborate in arthritis drug discovery program
As a member of the collaborative effort, Galapagos will contribute its arthritis disease biology and a validated target for drug development, which has been discovered using its siRNA-based technologies. ZoBio will be responsible for identification of a candidate drug compound using its proprietary TINS (Target Immobilized NMR Screening) technology, which will be further advanced via co-development with Leiden University. In addition, Pyxis Discovery will apply its expertise in computer-aided chemistry for the design of specialized "fragment-based" compound libraries that will be used to screen the target.
