<h2>The Challenge of Drug Repurposing</h2>Developing a new drug can take over a decade and cost billions of dollars.&nbsp;Drug repurposing - identifying new therapeutic uses for existing drugs - offers a faster, more cost-effective path. However, finding meaningful drug-disease associations requires analyzing massive biomedical datasets, integrating molecular structures, biological pathways, and clinical outcomes. Traditional methods struggle to capture the complex relationships between these data points.<h2>Enter Graph Neural Networks (GNNs)</h2>Graph Neural Networks are a class of deep learning models designed to work directly on graph-structured data - where entities (nodes) like drugs, proteins, and diseases are connected by edges representing interactions, pathways, or similarities.In drug repurposing, GNNs can:<ul><li>Integrate diverse biomedical data (drug molecular graphs, protein-protein interaction networks, and disease-gene associations).</li><li>Learn complex relationships between drugs and diseases beyond simple pairwise similarities.</li><li>Predict novel links between existing drugs and potential new indications with higher accuracy.</li><li>Reduce false positives by leveraging structural and functional knowledge embedded in biological networks.</li></ul>Example: A GNN model could learn from known drug-disease interactions, molecular structures, and gene expression profiles to predict that a cancer drug may also benefit patients with certain neurodegenerative disorders.<h2>By the Numbers: The Case for AI-Powered Drug Repurposing</h2><ul><li>30–40% of FDA-approved drugs in the late 2000s originated from repurposing efforts.</li><li>Repurposed drugs have an average&nbsp;≈30% approval rate, compared to&nbsp;≈10% for new drugs.</li><li>In real-world GNN applications, models like&nbsp;Dr-COVID identified 150 candidate drugs for COVID-19,&nbsp;46 of which were already in clinical trials, with known treatments ranking in the&nbsp;top 15 predictions.</li></ul>These figures highlight why GNN-powered repurposing is not just a theoretical breakthrough but a&nbsp;statistically proven accelerator for drug discovery.<h2>Why GNNs are Game-Changers in Healthcare AI</h2><ul><li>Scalable insights: Can process millions of nodes and edges from large biomedical databases (e.g., DrugBank, PubChem, CTD).</li><li>Precision predictions: Outperforms traditional machine learning in link prediction for drug-disease associations.</li><li>Rapid validation: Integrates real-world clinical data for faster hypothesis testing.</li></ul><h2>VMO’s Role in AI-Driven Drug Discovery</h2>As part of our&nbsp;AI in Healthcare portfolio, VMO supports life sciences organizations in building&nbsp;end-to-end AI pipelines for drug repurposing:<ol><li>Data Engineering &amp; Integration <ul><li>Curating and cleaning heterogeneous biomedical datasets.</li><li>Building graph databases combining chemical, genomic, and clinical trial data. &nbsp;</li></ul></li><li>Model Development <ul><li>Designing and training&nbsp;custom GNN architectures tailored to drug discovery use cases.</li><li>Incorporating domain-specific features like molecular fingerprints, omics profiles, and clinical notes. &nbsp;</li></ul></li><li>Validation &amp; Deployment <ul><li>Integrating GNN predictions into existing&nbsp;R&amp;D workflows.</li><li>Deploying scalable AI services on secure, compliant cloud environments (HIPAA, GDPR, PDPA). &nbsp;</li></ul></li><li>Ongoing Optimization <ul><li>Model retraining with new biomedical data.</li><li>Continuous monitoring to ensure reproducibility and compliance with regulatory standards.</li></ul></li></ol><h2>Potential Impact</h2>With VMO’s expertise in&nbsp;AI model design, data pipelines, and healthcare compliance, pharmaceutical companies can:<ul><li>Reduce early-stage discovery costs by&nbsp;30–50%.</li><li>Shorten validation timelines from years to months.</li><li>Increase the success rate of drug repurposing candidates entering clinical trials.</li></ul><h2>Looking Ahead</h2>The convergence of&nbsp;graph learning and&nbsp;healthcare AI is transforming how we discover treatments.

They will do so while retaining control and privacy of the data. Furthermore, web 3.0 will enable websites to make better use of data.Key to the innovation in Web 3.0 is the digitization of assets via tokenization. Tokenization converts assets and rights into a digital representation, or token, on a blockchain network.&nbsp;Below are the outstanding main features that can help us define Web 3.0:<ol><li>Semantic Web:&nbsp; Enhances web technologies' capacities to produce, share, and link material via search and analysis by comprehending the meaning of words rather than keywords or numbers.</li><li>Artificial Intelligence: Computers may grasp information on a human-like level by merging semantic skills with natural language processing, allowing them to give faster and more relevant results. As a result, they grow more intelligent and better meet the demands of consumers.</li><li>Connectivity: Because of semantic metadata, information is more linked in Web 3.0. As a result, the user experience transforms into a new level of connectedness that makes full use of all accessible data.</li><li>Ubiquity: Internet information and services are allowed to be ready for access from any device, rather than just PCs and smartphones. Previous editions of Web like Web 2.0 is already pervasive in many ways, but the proliferation of IoT devices will set the new bar for it.</li><li>Blockchain: User data is safeguarded and encrypted using blockchain technology. It prohibits major corporations from controlling and/or exploiting customers' personal data.</li><li>Decentralized: Decentralized data networks store data within a peer-to-peer interconnection. Users maintain ownership over their data and digital assets and are able to log in securely over the internet without being tracked.</li><li>Edge Computing: Web 3.0 relies on the advancement of edge computing, which processes apps and data at the network edge on devices such as mobile phones, computers, appliances, sensors, and even automobiles.</li></ol>&nbsp;<h2>How to Make Your Business More Competitive with Web 3.0</h2>Web 3.0 may help businesses in a variety of ways. Let's look at some of the spotlights where your business might benefit from new technology:<h3>Customer Relationship Management:</h3>Customer Relationship Management (CRM) has always been a central focus for businesses and with good reason. Understanding customer needs and desires is essential for delivering tailored services and offers that will lead to increased sales and loyalty. However, traditional CRM methods have often been limited by the data available, making it difficult to gain a truly holistic view of the customer.Web 3.0 promises to change that, by providing businesses with access to a wealth of new data sources. Through social media, browsing history, and other data sources, businesses will be able to gain a much deeper understanding of their customers. This will allow them to offer customized services that are much more likely to resonate with customers. In turn, this will lead to improved customer relationships and increased sales. Web 3.0 thus has the potential to revolutionize CRM and transform the way businesses interact with their customers.<h3>Supply Chain Management:</h3>SCM is the process of planning, implementing, and controlling the operations of a supply chain. It includes the movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods. Supply chains are used to produce and deliver products and services to customers. A key goal of SCM is to optimize the flow of materials, information, and finances across the supply chain to meet customer demand.In recent years, there has been a shift from traditional supply chains to more decentralized Supply Chain Networks (SCNs). SCNs are composed of a network of suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and other members that are connected through information and communication technologies.Web 3.0 is the next generation of the World Wide Web that is being developed based on Semantic Web technologies. It will be a more intelligent and user-centric web where data is interconnected and can be processed by machines. The decentralized nature of Web 3.0 will make Supply Chains more efficient and secure. This will reduce costs and improve the quality of products and services.<h3>Data Management:</h3>The use of the internet has already transformed the way businesses operate. With the advent of Web 3.0, we are likely to see even more radical changes. One area that is likely to be affected is data management. The increased ability to share and collaborate on data is likely to lead to new business models based on data sharing and collaboration. This will allow businesses to better manage their data and use it to improve their products and services. Data-driven businesses will be able to create new value propositions and offer new services that were not previously possible. In addition, the increased use of data will allow businesses to better understand their customers and tailor their products and services to meet their needs. The possibilities are endless, and we are only just beginning to scratch the surface of what Web 3.0 will make possible.<h3>Marketing and Advertising:</h3>Web 1.0 was focused on providing information and Web 2.0 allowed for two-way interaction, Web 3.0 is all about giving users a personalized experience. This shift is already having an impact on marketing and advertising. By creating a more personalized user experience, Web 3.0 makes it possible for marketers to reach their target audiences more effectively. As a result, we will see increased sales and brand awareness from companies that will opt for Web 3.0 technologies. In the future, we can expect more companies to make the switch to Web 3.0, to stay ahead of the competition and better meet the needs of their customers.<h2>&nbsp;</h2>
