Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought into focus the urgent requirement for revolutionary drug discovery and pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. AI has reinvented the expensive and cumbersome way of drug discovery by boosting it with advanced computational hardware. Recent applications of AI span multiple stages in the drug discovery pipeline, from de novo design to drug response profiling. The article provides a review of AI methodologies here, data quality issues and ethical challenges associated with them, as well as strategies to combat these issues.

The FDA's Pharmaceutical Quality for the 21 st Century Initiative is also responsible for developing advanced manufacturing technologies that promise to further increase drug quality and supply chain resilience. The use of AI for optimizing manufacturing processes, and more specifically, their modular and distributed approaches is also explored.

The review ends by taking a closer look at development in AI-based biotech startups, giving an overview of how AI has affected drug discovery and pharmaceutical manufacture.
