    HERG, which stands for the human ether-a-go-go-related gene, is a gene that encodes a potassium ion channel in the heart. Testing or screening for HERG is often related to assessing the potential proarrhythmic effects of drugs, as disruptions in the HERG channel can lead to cardiac arrhythmias, specifically a type known as Torsades de Pointes. Companies involved in HERG screening typically offer services and technologies to assess a drug's impact on HERG channels. These screenings are essential in the drug development process to ensure the safety of new pharmaceuticals.

    • Sep 2023: For the Logica drug platform powered by artificial intelligence (AI), Charles River Laboratories International and Related Sciences (RS) have inked a multi-program partnership agreement. Logica, a system that combines Charles River's preclinical experience with Valo Health's AI-powered Valo Opal Computational Platform, was introduced last year. Logica will be used for several RS portfolio targets that have previously been undrugged. RS will work with the Valo Health and Charles River teams to use Logica to find important new medications. These medications will be utilized to treat unmet needs in immunotherapy for cancer, inflammatory disorders, and autoimmune. Logica leverages Charles River's skills in all areas of discovery optimization in conjunction with Valo's Opal Computational Platform's predictive models, synthesis abilities, chemical design, DNA-encoded libraries, and in silico high throughput screening. Medicinal chemistry, biology, pharmacology, metabolism and excretion, absorption, distribution, and elevated throughput screening are some of these elements.
