A policy adjustment by the US FDA has stirred up quite a storm in the pharmaceutical R & D industry. Recently, the FDA announced that in the development of drugs such as monoclonal antibodies, it will gradually reduce, optimize, or replace animal testing, and instead rely on AI - based toxicity models, cell lines, and organoid tests. The simultaneously released "Roadmap for Reducing Animal Testing in Pre - clinical Safety Studies" further outlines a strategic vision for gradually moving away from dependence on animals.

Nature Medicine Review: AI Reconstructs the Paradigm of Drug Development
In the prolonged battle between humanity and disease, drug development remains the decisive battleground. Faced with the harsh reality of an average investment of $2.6 billion, a 15-year timeline, and a success rate below 10%, global scientists are turning to artificial intelligence (AI). This disruptive technology is quietly ushering drug development into a new era of "algorithm-driven" innovation. By 2025, the latest research in Nature journals reveals that generative AI models, exemplified by ChatGPT and Sora, are reshaping the entire drug development pipeline—from target discovery to clinical trials—accelerating "AI-driven drug discovery" from concept to clinical practice.
