MindRank, a key biopharmaceutical enterprise introduced to the Qiantang District, is always committed to reconstructing drug R&D pathways using cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence. The company’s self-developed “industrial-grade one-stop AI-driven new drug R&D platform” utilizes clustered and engineered AI technology, which is expected to reduce early-stage costs and R&D cycles of new drug development by 50% or more. In May this year, MindRank's first AI-assisted designed GLP-1RA oral small molecule drug, MDR-001, completed Phase IIb clinical trials. Clinical results showed that patients achieved an average weight loss of over 10.3% at 24 weeks (before placebo calibration), with excellent safety and tolerability. The project confirmed PCC just eight months after initiation.

MindRank's rapid development benefits from the high-quality industrial policies and innovative ecological environment in Qiantang District. Qiantang District continues to deepen the "six-chain integration" development model, which includes innovation chain, industry chain, talent chain, policy chain, financial chain, and service chain, while taking an early lead in laying out the new track of "AI + biomedicine," providing enterprises with a resource-sharing and complementary-advantage entrepreneurial and innovative environment. In the future, MindRank will continue to focus on the innovation and iteration of AI pharmaceutical systems and further advance the research and development of innovative drugs in metabolic and oncological diseases, striving for the well-being of patients and promoting high-quality growth in China’s AI biomedicine industry.QuantityContribute to development.
