MUMBAI, India, May 30 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517043588 A) filed by Genentech, Inc., San Francisco, on May 5, for 'selection of diverse candidate peptides for peptide therapeutics.'

Inventor(s) include Thrift, William John; and Liu, Kai.

The application for the patent was published on May 30, under issue no. 22/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A method for developing a therapeutic such as, for example, a peptide vaccine. A machine learning model is trained using a metric learning algorithm, training peptide sequence data, and training allele presentation data corresponding to the training peptide sequence data. Peptide sequence data identifying peptide sequences that correspond to peptides is received. A peptide sequence vector is generated, via a machine learning model, for each peptide sequence using the peptide sequence data to form a plurality of peptide sequence vectors. An output is generated using the plurality of peptide sequence vectors. The output provides an indication of similarity between peptide sequences of the plurality of peptide sequences. A group of candidate peptides is selected from the plurality of peptides for development of the therapeutic based on the output such that the group of candidate peptides includes at least two dissimilar candidate peptides."

The patent application was internationally filed on Nov. 14, 2023, under International application No.PCT/US2023/079683.
