Detection of Novel Opportunities For Drug-x
Identifying similar drugs
that already benefit from
combination therapy and
are potentially relevant for
Drug X.
Modifications of
dosage, route of
administration, etc.
Research for conditions
associated with a
personalized medicine
approach in relevant
research literature.
For example, an ‘Omics’-
related finding associated
with a certain disease that
can later be targeted by
specific drugs.
Modifications Conditions Combinations Genomics

Four approaches can be
taken in order to detect novel
opportunities for Drug X.
Similar

Reactions
A gauge is utilized for
assessment of similarity
level to Drug X.

Methodology
Breakdown of Drug X traits into several levels (pathway, mechanism of action,
etc.) based on data mining and natural language processing.
Queries are generated and applied onto the different resources.
Applying queries to extract similar therapeutic entities and assess their similarity

Conditions Ranking Model
Establishing a ranking model which will reflect the market conditions and the
client’s preferences and core capabilities. The end result will be a list of the most
relevant conditions that could be potentially treated with the initial drug.

So what are we going to talk about today?
I’m going to use the 25 minutes I have to share with you how big data can be used to support innovation.
First, we are going to start off talking about something you all probably sick of hearing about : “Big Data”
What is it? What are the challenges with it?
Then we will move into what it means for all of you in this room. What is the opportunity for big data to impact the work of innovators?
Finally, we will talk about what it means. We will review some real life examples of how big data was utilized to make smarter innovation choices. (faster and based on evidence) in short: product intelligence.
Present the solution:
Playbook: cloud based platform to run the selected app and the
SiGraph: the intelligence engine behind allows the connection of the dots in a way that could not be done before

Regardless of the trend and the perceptions, the problems you guys are faced with are real:
None of us would be here today if bringing innovation was an easy task
Constant tension between risk averse corporations and the need to innovate and show future
