Impact of AI on Pharma, Drug Discovery, Drug Development and Clinical Trials.10m lives Will Be Saved A Year Globally Because Of AI In Pharma and Health. Extract Ch 6 New Book: How AI Will Change Your Life - Dr Patrick Dixon, Pharma And AI Keynote Speaker

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Health Care and Pharma Keynote Speaker

Dr Patrick Dixon is a global keynote speaker on pharma and AI, author 18 books - here speaking with Futurist Gerd Leonhard.

Every aspect of drug development is being accelerated by AI, and pharma companies are likely to be spending over $4bn every year on AI by 2027. AI is already being widely used to discover new drugs, which could drive up to $50bn a year of future sales.

The number of new drugs developed using AI has already increased ten times in a single year, as shown in recent licence applications in the US. For example, AI is being used to:

◆ Identify potentially useful molecules for tests

◆ Design and build completely new molecules to fit cell

receptors, etc.

◆ Automate testing of hundreds of molecules

◆ Streamline clinical trials

◆ Analyse data

◆ Write up results

Morgan Stanley has calculated that every 2.5% improvement in preclinical development success rates could lead to an additional thirty new drug approvals over ten years.

Many millions of lives will be saved each year by 2030 as a direct result of AI, 400,000 in the EU alone.

AI is just the latest of many digital innovations sweeping through healthcare.

At the same time, AI will remain invisible to sick patients receiving care in hospital or at home.

You will be completely unaware of AI when unwell, with healthcare workers around you in the normal way, but your care team will feel better supported, by more accurate diagnostics and advice.

Over $30bn a year is already being spent on AI in healthcare, with AI budgets increasing by 30% or more every twelve months.

Future of Pharma and health care in an AI world. How COVID and AI accelerated pharma innovation,drug discovery, clinical trials, safety tests, regulatory approval, licensing. Impact on future drug development and future health care. Pharma keynote speaker

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Health Care and Pharma Keynote Speaker

COVID forced acceleration in pharma drug discovery, innovation, clinical trials and regulatory approval / licencing as well as major changes in delivery of health care. What does this all mean for the future of pharma and health care? Especially when combined with pharma impact of AI / Artificial Intelligence on drug discovery and clinical trials.

Take for example the rapid growth of "virtual drug trials" - see below, where AI was used extensively to develop new vaccines faster than anyone previously thought possible.

As a Physician as well as a Futurist I have worked with most of the largest pharma companies, helping them to understand the future. I have warned for over two decades of global risks from new pandemics like COVID, and also predicted huge global opportunities in AI.

So what will be the Future of Pharma beyond COVID, in a pharma world increasingly dominated by AI?

Here are notes on a recent Virtual keynote on the future of pharma.

New therapies for COVID and impact on future healthcare. Why effective, low-cost antiviral treatments will be more important than COVID vaccines in longer term. Truth about global fight against new viruses each year. Future of healthcare keynote speaker

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Health Care and Pharma Keynote Speaker

What will be the longer term impact of COVID on the future of health care? People often say to me that the answer to new viral pandemics is to develop vaccines. This is clearly nonsense since it takes months to develop a vaccine, months more to test, years to vaccinate the world at vast cost, and the vaccine itself may not produce long term immunity, or may be overtaken by new mutations.

That is why for two decades now I have been warning of the need to develop next-generation antivirals.

We still don't have a single antiviral today that is as powerful and effective as penicillin was against bacteria when first discovered over 80 years ago.

But one benefit of vaccines is buying us time to learn about new viruses so we can reduce death rates with better therapy.

Research falls mainly into three areas: antivirals, immune modulators and drugs to prevent blood clotting. Here are some examples - this area of medical research is growing at astonishing speed..

Expect more health care innovation from 2045 - 2050 than in all human history

As a physician and a Futurist, I work with many of of the world's largest Pharma and MedTech companies, helping them develop next-generation treatments to improve human health and wellbeing.

Health care knowledge is doubling every 24 months, so we will know 32,000 times in 2048 than today more about how the human body works, why disease happens, how to detect early disease, how to treat illness effectively, and how to promote health. The growth of medical knowledge shows no signs of slowing down, indeed it is accelerating. AI / Artificial Intelligence is driving much of this massive boost in speed of innovation and discovery.

Take for example the Human Genome Project. Back in 2001 it cost around $800m to decode or sequence most of the genetic code of just one human being. By 2006, the cost per genome sequence had already fallen to around $300,000.

Today, the same can be achieved for around $1000, using Illumina’s highest-end products, including reagents and an appropriate contribution to the capital cost of its machines. For example, the NovaSeq 6000 machine costs around $1m to buy. So how will this technology and 100,000 other innovations change future health care??

The truth about Omicron and other COVID-19 variants. 10 key omicron issues. Why we must expect further viral pandemics (and many more variants of COVID-19). So what's the answer? Life Beyond COVID-19

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Health Care and Pharma Keynote Speaker

What is the truth about Omicron? What does Omicron mean for our world?

For over two decades before COVID-19 hit the world I warned of risks from new viral pandemics.

And since COVID-19 emerged, I warned repeatedly that we should continue to expect significant new variants to emerge, at a rate of maybe around one significant variant per 100 million new infections. So Omicron is no surprise.

And many of my COVID forecasts have turned out to be correct - see elsewhere on this site. Firstly, we need to see Omicron as part of a wider picture....

(Article written 1st December 2021 - World AIDS Day. AIDS is caused by HIV, just another virus that jumped unexpectedly from animals to humans, but in the case of HIV, we still have no vaccine after 35 years of trying to develop one, nor any curative treatments. My own medical practice was overwhelmed by HIV / AIDS in 1987 which is why I have been so sensitised to risks of more pandemics.)

I warned of viral pandemics like COVID in 1998 and 2015 (books), and in hundreds of health care keynotes for multinationals, health agencies, governments. I always say: "The world can change faster than you can call a board meeting - need for Agility".

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Health Care and Pharma Keynote Speaker

I warned repeatedly over the last 22 years in several books, at large numbers of corporate events and in many global media broadcasts, about global threats from new mutant viruses, which we see emerging somewhere in the world once every 12 months on average.

As I often say to corporations: the world can change faster than you can hold a board meeting (and I don't just mean threats from viral pandemics). The days of depending on only one Strategy are over. Every company needs Plan B, C, D and E as well, and to be AGILE in leadership, able to respond very rapidly to major events in our hyper-connected world.

Impact of gene tech on future health care - including COVID vaccines, pharma innovation and ageing. Ability to manipulate genes - swop, write, edit genes and what it means for future health - keynote speaker POST / VIDEO

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Health Care and Pharma Keynote Speaker

Genetics is the key to radical innovation in future health care. And we've seen this recently in new vaccine technology against COVID which will be used in future to prevent many other illnesses. Yet most of our genes are the same as in other animals. Indeed 8 mechanisms of ageing in all animals are almost the same.

Dr Patrick Dixon, Futurist keynote speaker on the future of healthcare, and physician, takes a look at latest research into future of genetics, biotech, stem cells and other technologies that could dramatically improve life expectancy - and also provide new approaches to tackling illnesses like COVID.

What is the truth about COVID-19 variants such as Omicron, Delta and others that may emerge in future, and impact on future of health care? Vaccine effectiveness in longer term, actual numbers of people in different nations who have already been exposed to Coronavirus and had very mild COVID-19 illness, possibly now immune as a result.

I am writing as a physician and Futurist, as an advisor to many pharma companies, governments and other industries, and as someone who for over two decades has repeatedly warned of huge risks from new viral pandemics.

Future of Health - extract from The Future of Almost Everything book, by Futurist keynote speaker and physician, Dr Patrick Dixon, advisor to over 400 of the world's largest corporations, including many multinational pharma and health care companies.

We have seen how the future of every nation is linked to demographics, migrations and cities. But these things are also linked to the future health: not only how many people are born, but how fit they are and how long they live. And in health care, most of humankind will see an astonishing revolution over the next 30-50 years. The fact is that 65% of all health care spending in developed nations is on those over the age of 65, most of whom have several chronic health conditions, almost all related to the ageing process. Therefore it could be said that every pharma company and every hospital exists primarily to serve the health care needs of older people, in those parts of the world.

The greatest health challenges in the next two decades are almost all related to ageing, as many emerging nations also become older...

Future Health Care - medical Tourism - $40 billion a year industry, over 11 million people travelling to other nations for lower cost hospital treatments, dentistry or cosmetic surgery. Organ trafficking. Medical tourism will grow to $130bn by 2025.

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Health Care and Pharma Keynote Speaker

A major trend in the future of health care is the boom in medical tourism. One way to reduce future health costs for individuals, insurers or government is to move patients abroad for treatment, and we will see a lot more of this in a world beyond COVID.

‘Medical tourism’ is already a $40bn industry, growing 20% a year, with over 11 million people annually travelling to another country for private treatment, and possibly convalescence in a nice hotel. The market could be worth over $130bn by 2025.

The savings in all types of medical tourism can be huge: private health care in Brazil is only 25% of the cost in America, India 73%, Mexico 50%, Thailand 65%, Turkey 60%. Within the EU itself there are also major cost differences – for example, dental treatment in Hungary is far cheaper than in Paris.

Repeated warnings about mutant flu / new viruses like SARS-CoV-2 - wider long term picture

At a time of panic in some communities, here is a common sense view. I am writing as a physician and trends analyst who has been involved in the fight against HIV (another mutant virus) for over three decades. Since 1987 I have been predicting the great vulnerability of our world to new mutant viruses or mutations of existing ones, in my book The Truth about AIDS, in Futurewise published in 1998, and in The Future of Almost Everything published in 2015/2019...

Why AIDS is still a major global threat - another mutant virus that jumped from animals to humans like COVID-19. 33 years ago, that mutant hijacked my medical practice as a cancer doctor looking after people dying at home. Led to global ACET Foundation

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Health Care and Pharma Keynote Speaker

In 1987 my medical practice as a cancer doctor, looking after people dying at home in London, was hijacked and overwhelmed by a new mutant virus which had jumped from animals into humans, killing every person infected. That virus has since killed over 40 million people, and we still have no vaccine after 35 years of research, nor any cure.

And now, with COVID-19, the kind of new pandemic I have often warned of, it feels like history is repeating.

I responded to the global crisis back then, after seeing people with HIV die really badly, often rejected by health care workers as well as by family and friends. I launched a national and international agency called ACET (AIDS Care Education and Training).

This Foundation began in our family home, and within two years had become a national and international movement - which today has prevention and care programmes all over the world, in many of the hardest hit, most marginalised and remote communities - nations like Uganda, Nigeria, DR Congo, Zimbabwe, India, Thailand, Belarus, Ukraine, Czeck Republic, Slovakia - as well as UK and Republic of Ireland.

These programmes have delivered health promotion / education globally with total attendance in High School classes alone exceeding 7 million, tens of thousands receiving care - in their homes, in clinics and so on. Other programme are reaching pregnant women, saving the lives of their babies, educating commercial sex workers, and helping drug users to life healthier lives, and so on.

Join my family in making a donation to ACET today.

Every aspect of drug development is being accelerated by AI, and pharma companies are likely to be spending over $4bn every year on AI by 2027. AI is already being widely used to discover new drugs, which could drive up to $50bn a year of future sales.

AI (Artificial Intelligence) will drive astonishing improvements in health care, saving tens of millions of lives over the next few decades alone.
