“It is extremely difficult to maintain data quality within high-throughput pipelines to apply advances in AI due to data reproducibility, quality, and sparsity,” said Dale Thomas, Co-Founder, Mytide Therapeutics. “By partnering with Agilent, Mytide’s system will be able to overcome these challenges through deeply integrated hardware and software to enable a true real-time data collection, visualization, and decision-making pipeline.”

Together, Mytide and Agilent will leverage their combined technologies and analytical processes to help address known bottlenecks in peptide development and manufacturing by improving process performance and reliability. Mytide’s BioFab2 platform leverages advances in chemistry, robotics and AI to access natural and non-natural peptides faster than typical processes. Leveraging this suite of capabilities, Mytide is continuing to build datasets and technologies to drive access beyond easily accessible biopolymer which includes peptide-drug conjugates, constrained peptides, and short proteins.

“Agilent is very excited by the opportunity to collaborate with the pioneering team at Mytide Therapeutics. Our collaborative endeavor targeting the development of high-purity, customized peptides will contribute to the scientific excellence within the biopharmaceutical community and the scientific field as a whole. Mytide and Agilent are committed to expand on our shared values and mission to deliver trusted answers and advance the quality of life with precision medicines. The journey to partnership with Mytide has been magnificent, assuring an even brighter future. We are thrilled with the prospect of sharing in their vision to redefine the biopharmaceutical industry’s expectations for peptide manufacturing,” said Amir Liba, Associate Vice President, CMS East and Canada.

“Mytide and Agilent’s shared interest on leading the revolution on combining analytics and machine learning will accelerate our ability to bring our quick turn manufacturing technology into the broader drug discovery ecosystem to further accelerate the development of new peptide therapeutics,” added Thomas.

Mytide prioritizes partnerships with pharmaceutical companies that require salable and time-sensitive manufacturing for both research and clinical programs to support various personalize therapies. Mytide’s BioFab2 platform is designed to be integrated into cGMP manufacturing environments to allow for scalable and decentralized clinical trial manufacturing of a partner’s lead peptide-based therapeutic candidate.
