Creating a Table via Search

Build a targeted Smart Table by filtering Maven Bio's database for drugs, trials, companies, or other entities that match your research criteria.

When you need a competitive landscape of all Phase 2+ assets in NASH, a list of CAR-T trials recruiting in the US, or every mid-cap biotech with an oncology pipeline, Create Table via Search lets you filter Maven Bio's database and convert the results into a structured Smart Table for enrichment.

Select your entity type and apply filters

Click Smart Tables in the left toolbar, then select Create Table via Search. Choose the entity type for your search: Drug, Trial, Company, Indication, Target, Mechanism, Document, or Abstract.

The left pane shows all available filters tailored to your selected entity type. For example, if you are building a drug list, you see Indication Phases, Is Active, Mechanism, and other drug-specific filters. Select a filter to configure it in the middle pane, then click Add Filter to apply it.

Use AI filter suggestions

Instead of browsing filters manually, type a natural language query into the AI Filter Suggestions search bar (for example, "PD-1 inhibitors in Phase 3 for NSCLC") and click Suggest Filters. The system recommends relevant filters based on your query, which you can then refine or modify.

Review results and create the table

Active filters appear in the right pane. Click Calculate Result Count to see how many entities match your criteria before committing. When the results look right, click Apply Filters to generate the list.

From the results, click Create Smart Table (top-right) to convert the full list into a table. To include only specific rows, select their checkboxes and click Add To at the bottom of the page, then choose an existing table or create a new one.

What you can do next

Once your table is created, add AI Columns to enrich each row with custom analysis, or learn more about filter scoping to refine your searches further. For a detailed breakdown of every filter type and how AND/OR logic works, see Using Filters in Smart Table Search.
