🔹 AI drug discovery, validated. Recursion recently announced the first clinical validation of its AI-enabled drug discovery platform – positive Phase 1b/2 data for the ongoing TUPELO study evaluating its AI-identified drug, REC-4881, in Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP). This progressive rare disease affects more than 50,000 people in the U.S. and EU and has no FDA-approved treatments. It results in hundreds to thousands of polyps developing in the colon, and requires a lifetime of invasive surveillance and surgery. Recursion used AI not only to deliver the first potential treatment for this disease but also to quantify – for the first time at scale – the true natural progression of polyp burden in the trial-relevant population. It demonstrates the incredible breakthroughs that can come from merging proprietary data and AI – and the tangible impact on patient lives. 👉 See the full study results here:

After relapsing on the only drug in development for my rare disease, my doctors told me ‘We’ve tried everything, there’s nothing more that we can do.’ To make things worse, I didn’t have a billion dollars and 10 years to develop a new drug from scratch. My only hope was to find a drug that was already FDA-approved that I could repurpose for my disease. It’s been over 9.5 years that I’ve been in remission and we have been able to identify and advance numerous treatments for diseases they weren’t initially intended for. Now through Every Cure we are utilizing artificial intelligence to maximize the potential of all existing drugs to treat every disease they possibly can. What rare disease would you like to find a repurposed drug to treat? #MedTwitter

ER100 is a new drug and potential gene therapy currently in its first clinical trial with 12 participants. The mechanism is not symptom management and not disease treatment. It targets the biological switch at the cellular level, instructing cells to revert to a different functional state. Conventional medicine has been built around treating disease after it occurs. This approach aims to reverse the biological aging process that underlies disease development. The trial is early and the sample size is small, but if the mechanism holds, the implications for human health and longevity are unlike anything medicine has produced. This conversation is worth following closely.

We are thrilled to share positive topline data from our ELEVATE IPF Phase 2b trial evaluating deupirfenidone (LYT-100) for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (#IPF), a progressive and fatal lung disease. Our trial met the primary and key secondary endpoints, with deupirfenidone demonstrating the potential to serve as a new standard of care. Over 26 weeks, the highest dose of deupirfenidone studied was generally well-tolerated and reduced lung function decline to levels that approach natural lung function decline in healthy adults over sixty—a first for any investigational or approved treatment for IPF. We’re incredibly excited for what deupirfenidone could offer the IPF community, which urgently needs new treatment options with better efficacy that don’t compromise on tolerability. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated in the ELEVATE IPF trial, including patients, caregivers, clinical trial sites, and advocacy groups. Your courage, dedication and expertise make progress possible, and we are grateful for your trust and partnership. Read more in today’s press release:

A few days ago, we learned that the first patient in the U.S., to our knowledge, has been dosed with lidocaine for their breast cancer treatment. Just six weeks ago, we learned about the potential connection between lidocaine and improved breast cancer outcomes from a groundbreaking clinical trial of 1,600 patients conducted in India. That study showed a potential 30% reduction in five-year mortality for patients who received lidocaine injections into their tumors before surgery. Since then, we've engaged in discussions with specialists and researchers, and what we’ve discovered has been surprising —no one seemed to be using this approach, despite the data available. The other day, one of those conversations turned into action. A doctor we spoke to decided to inject a tumor with lidocaine before removing it, marking a critical first step toward translating global insights into real-world patient care. This moment excites us because it shows the power of accelerating drug repurposing insights into clinical practice. At Every Cure, this is exactly what drives us: identifying overlooked opportunities and ensuring they reach patients who need them most—quickly and efficiently. #medtwitter

Hello, my dear friends, we have some breaking news today! Our rentosertib (novel target that has never been in clinical trials before we picked it using AI, novel molecule designed using true generative AI with the published broadly used AI platform, targeting fibrosis and biology of aging) entered Phase III trial in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. This is a major milestone in the life of every drug hunter - the ultimate test. To my knowledge, in our AI drug discovery industry, no other company took the drug for a novel target with a novel molecule into Phase III before so it is a big milestone for the entire industry. Of course, at Insilico we are no longer dependent on this program - we have 13 INDs and many clinical trials are ongoing internally and run by partners. But this program is very special as we also demonstrated the senomorphic properties of this drug and built the entire pipeline of molecules around this target. Please Wish Me Luck! Luck is the most important superpower in everything we do and if we succeed with this program and also demonstrate the antiaging effect - all of us will benefit. Godspeed, my friends and thanks to everyone who helped us along the way!

Hey, I'm Dryka Brenda, and I'm facing a difficult battle against a rare genetic disease called Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP). It's caused by a mutation in the APC gene, which my father and I both have, and it causes the growth of many polyps throughout the digestive system. FAP doesn't just affect the large intestine; it can also affect the stomach, duodenum, small intestine, and even other organs like the thyroid, liver, pancreas, adrenal glands, bones, and skin. It's a silent disease that spreads internally and, if left untreated, almost inevitably leads to cancer. We only discovered this mutation in 2023 when my father was diagnosed with two tumors in his intestine, one in the rectum and the other in the colon (synchronous tumors). After that, he and I underwent surgeries to remove our large intestines, but unfortunately, this disease is progressive and is now affecting our stomach and duodenum. This mutation has already caused a lot of pain in our family. My grandmother passed away from stomach cancer, my brother from leukemia, and now my father and I are in this fight. But there is hope: an experimental treatment and specialized follow-up at the Mayo Clinic in the United States (a world reference in rare and genetic diseases). Both my father and I will be treated there, and my mother will go along as our caregiver. We have already created a crowdfunding campaign to raise the necessary funds, but it is not enough, and we need to raise this amount by January 22nd, otherwise we will not be able to undergo the treatment. The Token fees will help me pay all the costs: passports, visas, tickets, food, accommodation, medical translations and unexpected costs that arise, and mainly, the treatment It's difficult to ask for help, but we are clinging to the chance to live with quality of life and the chance to control this disease. PAF requires continuous monitoring, and this could be a turning point in our treatment. Any amount is already a seed of hope. And if you can't donate or buy my token, sharing already helps a lot <3

It's not uncommon to find 15, or even 50, different organizations dedicated to a single rare disease. This is without a doubt holding the rare disease community back. The reality is that compared to more common diseases, rare diseases already face significant hurdles in accessing resources. This scarcity is amplified by the fragmentation of groups. Each organization, operating in isolation, struggles to gather sufficient patient data and biospecimens, which are crucial for advancing research and treatment options. Imagine the potential if these groups could unite their efforts. By combining resources, sharing data, and collaborating on research, we could accelerate progress in ways that are currently out of reach. How can we foster greater unity in the rare disease community? What steps can we take to ensure that every organization, family, and patient is part of a larger, more effective network? #MedTwitter

This people remains fully prepared to fight for their dignity should it come under any threat.” ▪️ “The Israeli entity—which has always sought to destabilize us and sow discord among us since the fall of the former regime—is once again trying to turn our sacred land into an endless arena of chaos. Through this, it aims to fracture our people’s unity and weaken our ability to continue the path of reconstruction and national revival.” ▪️ “This entity never ceases in its use of every method to plant conflict and division—forgetting that Syrians, with their long history, have always rejected disunity and partition.” ▪️ “Possessing great power does not guarantee victory, just as success in one arena does not mean success in another. You may be able to start a war, but you cannot easily control its outcome. We are the children of this land—more capable than anyone of overcoming the Israeli entity’s attempts to tear us apart, and too steadfast to have our resolve shaken by manufactured discord.” ▪️ “We, the sons of Syria, know well who seeks to drag us into war, who wants to divide us—and we will not give them the opportunity to trap our people in a conflict they wish to ignite on our soil. A war whose only aim is to fragment our homeland and scatter our efforts into chaos and destruction. Syria is not a testing ground for foreign conspiracies, nor a stage for others to realize their ambitions at the expense of our children and women.” ▪️ “The Syrian state belongs to all. It is the dignity and pride of the nation—the dream of every Syrian who longs to see his homeland rebuilt anew. Through this state, we unite without division, so we may restore Syria’s stature and place it at the forefront of secure and stable nations.” ▪️ “Building a new Syria requires all of us to rally around our state and commit to its principles—placing the interests of the nation above any individual or narrow agenda. What we need today is for all of us to become partners in this reconstruction, working hand in hand to overcome every challenge before us.” ▪️ “Unity is our weapon, hard work is our path, and our steadfast will is the foundation upon which we will build a bright future.” ▪️ “I extend a special message to our Druze brethren, who are an integral part of this nation’s fabric: Syria will never be a land of partition or fragmentation or division between its sons. Protecting your rights and freedoms is a top priority for us. We reject any attempt to drag you into alignment with external actors or to sow division within our ranks. We are all partners in this land, and we will not allow any faction to distort the beautiful image of Syria and its diversity.” ▪️ “The Syrian state—with all its institutions and leadership—intervened with resolve and determination to stop the internal fighting that erupted in Sweida between armed groups from the province and neighboring areas, triggered by longstanding disputes. Instead of helping the state calm the situation, lawless groups known for their chaos and incitement emerged. These gang leaders are the very ones who rejected dialogue for many months, placing their narrow personal interests above the interest of the nation.” ▪️ “The state’s efforts succeeded in restoring stability and expelling the lawless factions—despite Israeli interference. The Israeli entity responded by launching widespread attacks on civilian and government infrastructure to undermine these efforts, greatly complicating the situation and pushing matters toward a dangerous escalation. It was only thanks to effective mediation by the U.S., Arab, and Turkish sides that the region was spared an unknown fate.” Continues below … 👇🏼

Thanks Ashish Ashish M. Kamat, MD, MBBS. Your book entitled, "Bladder Cancer: A Practical Guide" says it all. Together we face patients on a day-to-day level in which we have to make decisions in the best interest of the patient with nothing else considered. I was so grateful for you to have shared with me your views on whether CIS and papillary from a clinical perspective was the same disease and also how you treat patients who have failed all BCG and have papillary disease and face losing their bladder to a life-changing operation of cystectomy. I was blown away at this year's #AUA2026 when a researcher presented a slide showing that the morbidity and mortality of a cystectomy exceeds even that of a Whipple in which the pancreas, gallbladder portion of the stomach and spleen are all removed. That blew my mind especially since there is an option to save the bladder. I am posting the segment of our long conversation relating to your views of whether CIS and high grade papillary are treated clinically as the same disease. I was glad to hear the next day at the FDA workshop that your fellow expert colleagues completely agreed with this sentiment that you expressed in our conversation.

“We express our gratitude for this crystal clear position by the 145 countries addressed to the host country, to respect its obligation under the Headquarters Agreement… the host country does not have the right or the privilege to abuse its authority and deny visas for our leaders to participate. We sincerely hope that this abuse is reversed as quickly as possible. We have the right to be with all of you, for our leaders, to be with all of you, and to share our thoughts and ideas peacefully, diplomatically, legally, and in a civilized way. Denying us, denying our leaders, the opportunity to do so is an abuse of the authority, and it is a punishment for the State of Palestine that should not take place. Our leaders will participate in the capacity that is possible to us, but we will not yield an inch for our right to be treated like the rest of you and to receive our visas for our leaders in any meetings that we are invited to participate in, and we will continue doing that. “
