    Abstract

    The report on Agentic AI use cases in life sciences explores the transformative potential of autonomous AI systems in the sector.

    Agentic AI, characterized by its ability to operate independently and adapt to environments without constant human intervention, is being increasingly adopted across the pharmaceutical value chain. Key applications include drug discovery, clinical trials, pharmacovigilance, and regulatory compliance. The report highlights that while the adoption of Agentic AI is still in its early stages, it shows promise in enhancing efficiency, decision-making, and operational agility. Leading pharmaceutical companies are exploring scalable AI solutions to improve drug discovery processes, optimize clinical trials, and ensure regulatory compliance. The report also discusses the challenges faced by life sciences companies in implementing Agentic AI, such as data privacy concerns, integration of heterogeneous datasets, and maintaining transparency in AI-driven decisions. Overall, the adoption of Agentic AI is poised to transform how pharmaceutical companies innovate, operate, and deliver therapies, positioning AI as a crucial enabler of next-generation life sciences innovation.

    Frequently asked questions

    The PeMa (Penetration and Maturity) Quadrant is AIM Research's 2x2 vendor evaluation framework. It measures each provider's market penetration (clients, deal sizes, geographic spread) and technology maturity (capabilities, platforms, partnerships), and places them as Leaders, Seasoned Vendors, Growth Vendors or Challengers.

    Any enterprise technology vendor active in the relevant market category can request to participate. AIM Research issues an open RFI for each study and invites qualifying vendors via the Research Calendar.

    Vendors are evaluated through a structured RFI process backed by primary research, including vendor briefings, customer references and product evaluations. They are scored across 40+ weighted criteria covering product capabilities, strategy and market impact, and the weighted scores are mapped to one of the four quadrant positions.

    The date of the next edition has not been announced yet. Upcoming studies and their RFI windows are listed on the AIM Research Calendar.

    Agentic AI refers to a class of artificial intelligence systems designed to operate autonomously, make decisions, and adapt to environments without constant human intervention. Unlike traditional AI, Agentic systems execute complex workflows, analyze large datasets, and optimize processes in real time.

    In drug discovery, Agentic AI is used for target identification, compound screening, and mechanism modeling. It enables autonomous research agents to conduct and optimize scientific research, and AI-enabled solutions tailor treatments to individual patient profiles, accelerating the drug discovery process.

    Life science companies face challenges such as data privacy and security concerns, integrating heterogeneous datasets, ensuring regulatory compliance, maintaining transparency in AI-driven decisions, and balancing human oversight with automation. High computational costs and model interpretability also pose challenges.
