Why we invested in Novadiscovery

The pharma industry wants to contribute to making healthcare more affordable for patients, but the ever increasing regulatory requirements, lengthening timelines and skyrocketing cost of drug development do not make this an easy job. Nova introduces a new category, in silico clinical trials, that reduces the need for trial and error, helping pharma to focus on those treatments that more likely work for given patient groups. As model informed drug development has become a strategic priority also for reglators worldwide, Debiopharm wanted to partner with the best and build the future together.
