Charles River Laboratories International (CRL) and Valo Health said Tuesday they identified their first advanceable product candidate for lupus and other autoimmune diseases using Logica.
The companies said Logica, an AI-powered drug development program born from their strategic partnership, translates biological insights into optimized preclinical assets.
The Logica Advanceable Lead program combines Valo's DNA-encoded libraries and Opal Computational Platform with Charles River's high-throughput screening to produce advanceable leads, they said.
CRL shares were 0.8% higher in recent premarket activity.
