Problem

Current drug discovery methods often struggle to identify novel therapeutic candidates, particularly for complex diseases like immune and cardiometabolic disorders. Traditional approaches may not fully leverage the potential of naturally occurring molecules and can be limited by challenges in oral bioavailability and stability.

Solution

Wild employs a drug discovery platform that mines a proprietary database of over 200 million microbial genes to identify novel miniprotein and peptide therapeutics. The platform leverages machine learning to identify bioactive molecules and stable scaffolds suitable for oral administration. By mimicking evolutionary adaptations found in the animal kingdom, Wild aims to discover and develop innovative therapeutics that address unmet clinical needs in immune and cardiometabolic disorders. The platform includes a structural catalog of diverse miniproteins and peptides, including cyclic and knotted structures, enabling the discovery of molecules with unique therapeutic attributes.

Target Audience

The primary target audience includes pharmaceutical companies seeking novel therapeutic candidates and strategic partnerships to expand their pipelines in immune and cardiometabolic disease areas.
