Insilico Medicine, a Hong Kong-based company that uses artificial intelligence to drive drug discovery, filed confidentially for a U.S. initial public offering last week, according to people familiar with the matter.

The Warburg Pincus-backed firm is working with advisers on the first-time share sale and is looking to raise around $300 million, the people said, asking not to be identified because the matter is private.
