CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 8 /PR蘑菇视频APPwire/ -- Genstruct Inc., a knowledge-driven discovery company, announced today that it has signed an agreement with Pfizer to collaborate on a variety of research projects to help better understand complex diseases. This deal is part of a continuing, multiyear relationship Genstruct has developed with Pfizer. Terms of the partnership are not being disclosed.

This new arrangement will include research projects with several Pfizer units, including Worldwide Safety Sciences, the Proteomics Global Center of Excellence, and Clinical Sciences. Genstruct will use its Molecular Epistemics(TM) Platform to generate hypotheses to reveal underlying mechanisms of action and toxicity to help Pfizer prioritize and develop new medicines for treating complex diseases.

"We are pleased to be growing our relationship with Pfizer," said Keith O. Elliston, Ph.D., president and CEO of Genstruct. "We have developed a novel approach to mechanism discovery and this agreement with the world's premier pharmaceutical research and development organization should provide additional validation of our Molecular Epistemics Platform.
