Precision at Every Scale: Efficiency in AI-Driven De Novo Antibody Design
The precise de novo design of antibodies remains a therapeutic challenge. The AI platform, GaluxDesign, was evaluated in a high-efficiency Precision-Scale Workflow by synthesizing and testing only 50 full-length IgG candidates per epitope across eight distinct epitopes from six therapeutic targets. This campaign yielded a 10.5% binder rate (estimated EC50 < 100 nM), identifying target-specific binders for seven of eight epitopes, with multiple candidates exhibiting sub-nanomolar to single-digit nanomolar dissociation constants (Kd). We further assessed the same workflow on nine shared benchmark targets selected for external comparison, where GaluxDesign identified target-specific binders for eight of nine targets, demonstrating strong target-level performance relative to previously reported de novo antibody design approaches. Together, these results establish a high-efficiency, precision-scale workflow for generating novel, high-affinity therapeutic antibodies.
