Innovations in drug delivery systems are improving the effectiveness and convenience of treatments. Nanotechnology, for example, enables targeted drug delivery at the cellular level, enhancing the therapeutic impact while minimizing side effects. Other advancements include smart drug delivery systems that release medication in response to specific physiological triggers.

7. Regulatory Innovations

Regulatory bodies are evolving to keep pace with technological advancements. Adaptive regulatory frameworks, such as the FDA’s Breakthrough Therapy designation and the European Medicines Agency’s PRIME scheme, are designed to expedite the approval of promising therapies. These frameworks support the rapid translation of innovative treatments from the lab to the clinic.

8. Patient-Centric Care

The future of pharmaceutical services is increasingly patient-centric. This approach involves engaging patients in their own care, using digital tools to monitor health outcomes, and providing personalized support. Patient-centric care models aim to improve adherence to medication, enhance patient satisfaction, and achieve better health outcomes. Important Information:

Health Tab can provide 21 blood chemistry results in 12 minutes at your pharmacy (Video)

Avricore Health Inc. (TSX.V: AVCR) (OTCQB: AVCRF) is a health care technology company focused on delivering an effective range of health innovations within the community pharmacy. With decades of experience in pharmacy and pharmacy policy in Canada, the Avricore team represents the industry’s most passionate advocacy.

With this unique focus on the community pharmacy and committing to supporting their development as a more robust and effective health care centre, the company hopes to improve health outcomes for patients and lower overall health care costs.

  Hannah Bernard: Hi, I’m Hannah Bernard. You’re watching Market One Minute. Joining us today is CEO of Avricore Health, Bob Rai. Bob, let’s start off by you telling us what the core focus of Avricore Health is.

Bob Rai: Avricore Health has now shifted towards being a technology and data company. We’re here to provide more tools in the tool chest for pharmacists across the country through technology, and at the same time, through these new clinical tools, potentially new revenue streams for the pharmacists as well. At the end of the day, we’re here to empower the consumer with their health information and in their health data literally at their fingertips. As we know in this day and age, everyone wants that information yesterday. Through this technology, we’re here to really help to address and optimize the consumer’s health. Pharmacists as you know we’ve always been, I’m a pharmacist myself, we’ve always been there to counsel whether it’s on diet, lifestyle, of course along with the prescription medications and other supplements. We’ve always really been coaches.

Bob Rai: Through the technology that we’ll be delivering at the pharmacy counter, Avricore’s goal is to really own that pharmacy counter and be able to allow pharmacists to be better utilized in our health care system, provide avenues of, in this case, preventative health, and ultimately to help to optimize the consumer’s health as best as possible.

Hannah Bernard: What’s driving this shift of Avricore from Vanc Pharma?

Bob Rai: The pharmacy industry in Canada is rapidly evolving. It’s being driven by government putting pressure in terms of wanting to reduce medication costs, and in particular on the generic drug prices in Canada. Over the last decade or so, they’ve taken steps to reduce those generic drug prices. At the end of the day, that was a profit centre for pharmacies. That has really now taken a large chunk of that money out of pharmacists’ pockets. An example is the Pan-Canadian Initiative, which came into effect in April of 2018, where literally three billion dollars was taken out of pharmacists’ pockets. Pharmacists have always at the same time been talking about furthering their scope of practice, being able to do more, to help in terms of prevention in our health care industry. This pressure on the generic drug prices is actually providing that opportunity, where now pharmacists moving forward can be more utilized in our health care system to potentially achieve health care savings through prevention.

Hannah Bernard: How have you done this?

Bob Rai: Avricore has acquired technology as we’re positioning ourselves to become a technology and data company. The first acquisition was Health Tab. Health Tab can provide with a patient assisted fingerprint right at the pharmacy counter 21 different blood chemistry results in 12 minutes direct to the consumer and patient. They have their username and password account, and they get that information literally at their fingertips. This platform is now plugged into, as I mentioned, the blood chemistry with a piccolo analyzer. We can now as Avricore also plug into other technologies. That acquisition has driven those discussions, for example, pharmacogenomics and DNA testing. We also acquired in the spring a platform, which is Canada’s first and only pharmacist facing portal, where there’s an academy portion to it, so the pharmacist can get themselves educated, trained, accredited.

Bob Rai: There’s also a workflow component, so they can understand and get advice on how to fit it into their daily routine and their workflow. Then there’s the eCommerce and store component, where then they can literally order the product and service and get it directly into the pharmacy.

Hannah Bernard: Great. Can you tell us a little bit about your board?

Bob Rai: Our company is largely driven by pharmacy experts, myself included. I’m a biochemist and pharmacist. We’re here to really help to deliver on the mission of providing necessary health care services to the consumer. For example, Bob Sindelar the former dean of pharmacy from the University of British Columbia is on our board. He’s a global thought leader in terms of where pharmacy is headed, Sherif Guorgui who is a pharmacist here in Ontario he won the Pharmacist of the Year award last year at the Pharmacy U Conference. He’s also been really a leader in terms of innovation, and how to better utilize pharmacists in our health care system. Of course Ray Chepesiuk, who former commissioner of PAAB a pharmacist himself, he’s a most recent addition as an advisor. Our company has really been built through a stellar board and really stellar advisors, with the background of being experts in the pharmacy industry in Canada.

Hannah Bernard: Sounds like you’ve got the right team for the job. What can we expect in 2019?

Bob Rai: 2019 is a going to be an exciting year for Avricore. We’re launching two new initiatives on our Health Tab software platform. One is an LOI that we did with Molecular You, where we’ll be now able to offer pharmacogenomics and DNA specific to cannabis. With cannabis now being legal, we will be able to deliver it to the consumer, their information as it pertains to cannabis usage and how it might affect their medications. And again, at the pharmacy counter, the pharmacist’s role there will be further expanded to help to coach and offer this advice and information to their consumers and patients.

Hannah Bernard: Well it sounds like lots of great news flow coming from the company. Thanks for sharing that with us Bob.

Bob Rai: Thank you.

Model learns how individual amino acids determine protein function

A machine-learning model from MIT researchers computationally breaks down how segments of amino acid chains determine a protein’s function, which could help researchers design and test new proteins for drug development or biological research. 

Proteins are linear chains of amino acids, connected by peptide bonds, that fold into exceedingly complex three-dimensional structures, depending on the sequence and physical interactions within the chain. That structure, in turn, determines the protein’s biological function. Knowing a protein’s 3-D structure, therefore, is valuable for, say, predicting how proteins may respond to certain drugs.

However, despite decades of research and the development of multiple imaging techniques, we know only a very small fraction of possible protein structures — tens of thousands out of millions. Researchers are beginning to use machine-learning models to predict protein structures based on their amino acid sequences, which could enable the discovery of new protein structures. But this is challenging, as diverse amino acid sequences can form very similar structures. And there aren’t many structures on which to train the models.

In a paper being presented at the International Conference on Learning Representations in May, the MIT researchers develop a method for “learning” easily computable representations of each amino acid position in a protein sequence, initially using 3-D protein structure as a training guide. Researchers can then use those representations as inputs that help machine-learning models predict the functions of individual amino acid segments — without ever again needing any data on the protein’s structure.

In the future, the model could be used for improved protein engineering, by giving researchers a chance to better zero in on and modify specific amino acid segments. The model might even steer researchers away from protein structure prediction altogether.

“I want to marginalize structure,” says first author Tristan Bepler, a graduate student in the Computation and Biology group in the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL). “We want to know what proteins do, and knowing structure is important for that. But can we predict the function of a protein given only its amino acid sequence? The motivation is to move away from specifically predicting structures, and move toward [finding] how amino acid sequences relate to function.”

Joining Bepler is co-author Bonnie Berger, the Simons Professor of Mathematics at MIT with a joint faculty position in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, and head of the Computation and Biology group.

Learning from structure

Rather than predicting structure directly — as traditional models attempt — the researchers encoded predicted protein structural information directly into representations. To do so, they use known structural similarities of proteins to supervise their model, as the model learns the functions of specific amino acids.

They trained their model on about 22,000 proteins from the Structural Classification of Proteins (SCOP) database, which contains thousands of proteins organized into classes by similarities of structures and amino acid sequences. For each pair of proteins, they calculated a real similarity score, meaning how close they are in structure, based on their SCOP class.

The researchers then fed their model random pairs of protein structures and their amino acid sequences, which were converted into numerical representations called embeddings by an encoder. In natural language processing, embeddings are essentially tables of several hundred numbers combined in a way that corresponds to a letter or word in a sentence. The more similar two embeddings are, the more likely the letters or words will appear together in a sentence.

In the researchers’ work, each embedding in the pair contains information about how similar each amino acid sequence is to the other. The model aligns the two embeddings and calculates a similarity score to then predict how similar their 3-D structures will be. Then, the model compares its predicted similarity score with the real SCOP similarity score for their structure, and sends a feedback signal to the encoder.

Simultaneously, the model predicts a “contact map” for each embedding, which basically says how far away each amino acid is from all the others in the protein’s predicted 3-D structure — essentially, do they make contact or not? The model also compares its predicted contact map with the known contact map from SCOP, and sends a feedback signal to the encoder. This helps the model better learn where exactly amino acids fall in a protein’s structure, which further updates each amino acid’s function.

Basically, the researchers train their model by asking it to predict if paired sequence embeddings will or won’t share a similar SCOP protein structure. If the model’s predicted score is close to the real score, it knows it’s on the right track; if not, it adjusts.

Protein design

In the end, for one inputted amino acid chain, the model will produce one numerical representation, or embedding, for each amino acid position in a 3-D structure. Machine-learning models can then use those sequence embeddings to accurately predict each amino acid’s function based on its predicted 3-D structural “context” — its position and contact with other amino acids.

For instance, the researchers used the model to predict which segments, if any, pass through the cell membrane. Given only an amino acid sequence, the researchers’ model predicted all transmembrane and non-transmembrane segments more accurately than state-of-the-art models.

“The work by Bepler and Berger is a significant advance in representing the local structural properties of a protein sequence,” says Serafim Batzoglou, a professor of computer science at Stanford University. “The representation is learned using state-of-the-art deep learning methods, which have made major strides in protein structure prediction in systems such as RaptorX and AlphaFold. This work has ultimate application in human health and pharmacogenomics, as it facilitates detection of deleterious mutations that disrupt protein structures.”

Next, the researchers aim to apply the model to more prediction tasks, such as figuring out which sequence segments bind to small molecules, which is critical for drug development. They’re also working on using the model for protein design. Using their sequence embeddings, they can predict, say, at what color wavelengths a protein will fluoresce.

“Our model allows us to transfer information from known protein structures to sequences with unknown structure. Using our embeddings as features, we can better predict function and enable more efficient data-driven protein design,” Bepler says. “At a high level, that type of protein engineering is the goal.”

Berger adds: “Our machine learning models thus enable us to learn the ‘language’ of protein folding — one of the original ‘Holy Grail’ problems — from a relatively small number of known structures.”
