Physics-based dis­cov­ery out­fit Schrödinger and the Uni­ver­si­ty of Texas MD An­der­son Can­cer Cen­ter an­nounced to­day a two-year re­search col­lab­o­ra­tion — fo­cused on ac­cel­er­at­ing and op­ti­miz­ing de­vel­op­ment of Schrödinger’s in­ves­ti­ga­tion­al WEE1 in­hibitor.

The team, made up of Schrödinger em­ploy­ees and re­searchers with  MD An­der­son’s Trans­la­tion­al Re­search to Ad­vance Ther­a­peu­tics and In­no­va­tion in On­col­o­gy (TRAC­TION) plat­form, will seek to pri­or­i­tize clin­i­cal stud­ies of a WEE1 in­hibitor as a sin­gle agent in cer­tain can­cer in­di­ca­tions and in com­bi­na­tions for de­fined clin­i­cal sub­pop­u­la­tions, ac­cord­ing to a com­pa­ny state­ment.
