Using Amazon Bedrock Agents to Accelerate Decisions Across Drug Development at AstraZeneca
AstraZeneca
AstraZeneca built Development Assistant, a multi-agent AI tool using Amazon Bedrock Agents, that lets clinical, regulatory, safety and quality teams ask natural language questions and get insights from structured and unstructured data in seconds via text-to-SQL generation and retrieval-augmented generation. A supervisor agent routes queries to specialized subagents (terminology, clinical, regulatory, database). Built on AstraZeneca's Drug Development Data Platform (3DP), the tool moved from concept to production in 6 months, including cybersecurity and AI governance checks, and is scaling to over 1,000 users.
