AstraZeneca Sees Potential for AI Beyond Drug Discovery

Dow Jones

1249 GMT - While many artificial-intelligence startups are exploring the technology's potential to find new drugs, AstraZeneca executives say the company is using it in other areas. AI is important in drug development, which entails large, expensive risks, AstraZeneca CEO Pascal Soriot says on a call with reporters. If AI can help fine-tune the design of a clinical trial to improve its chances of success, that could end up being a big benefit, Soriot says. The U.K. drugmaker is also using AI to improve productivity across the business, in areas like regulatory submissions, CFO Aradhana Sarin says on the call. AstraZeneca doesn't expect any direct impact on jobs from AI as its portfolio continues to grow, Sarin adds. Shares rise 1.2%. (adria.calatayud@wsj.com)
