Brainlab and Precision NeuroMed partner to develop AI-enabled drug delivery platform for brain diseases

Brainlab and Precision NeuroMed have formed a strategic partnership to develop an AI-enabled treatment planning platform for convection enhanced delivery (CED) to the brain. Brainlab has taken an equity stake in the clinical-stage biotechnology company as part of the collaboration. The partnership aims to create a cloud-based CED Treatment Planning System that combines Brainlab's medical imaging expertise with Precision NeuroMed's molecular flow simulation software. The platform will use advanced imaging and AI-driven optimisation to personalise drug distribution, overcoming blood-brain barrier limitations that restrict most systemically administered drugs. Initial development will focus on supporting Precision NeuroMed's lead drug, PNM-201, for recurrent glioblastoma. The companies plan to expand the platform to enable delivery of therapies for epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease and ALS.
