people arguing developability is some magic sauce these companies have should look at the literature. you have a series of criteria which are hard coded and very trivial (no cysteines in CDRs, reduce possible glycan sites...etc) to internalize and you have a few softer metrics which are open source on the back end.
twist, genscript, thermo.....these guys don't have any functional readouts downstream so they have *zero* inference to the utility of the expressed molecules and very limited data on the runs that they do put in their workflows for things like aggregation or thermal stability
there is really genuinely nothing special here. i know many pharmas and CROs that have internalized high throughput antibody expression workflows.
TWST and companies like them are selling to a specific crowd (cash rich AI x Bio people) who have shown no ability to do this basic thing (make molecules and test them in vitro) and these companies will eventually run out of money propping up this revenue. likely without any drugs to show for it.
that said, this means the trade is short term bullish but long term bearish. there is no $100B+ or $1T TAM for this work. drug discovery is not being 'revolutionized'. it is being pushed forward incrementally by very smart people with S-tier judgement in translational science and a real ability to execute. not new people who can't even internalize in vitro work with hundreds of millions in cash
A remarkable overestimation of CRO revenue on the back of a slight improvement to in silico pipelines. Genuinely wreckless and very ignorant of market realities.
Yes the AI trade has tailwinds right now but a lot of this post is pure hyperbole and if you're actually putting money on these companies you're better served hedging than putting your foot on the gas of this trade

T-DXd is one of the most active drugs ever developed for MBC.
I’ve seen it change the disease course of many patients, dramatically improving their survival.
I hope that the NHS & the companies will find a solution to provide the drug to patients in UK.

Compounding clinics are writing as many scripts as they can each day and printing money.
Transactional treatment. No requirements except money. No care included. No oversight or supervision of treatment. It's all so gross. An abomination and @US_FDA is doing nothing about it.
