The partnership integrates advanced AI-driven analytics and clinical trial solutions, empowering biopharma companies to accelerate drug development and deliver targeted therapies faster.
Precision for Medicine, a leading provider of drug development and commercialization services, announced a strategic partnership with SOPHiA GENETICS to enhance its biomarker discovery and precision medicine services. As part of this collaboration, Precision for Medicine will integrate the SOPHiA DDM™ Platform for biomarker discovery, clinical trial assays (CTAs), and advanced algorithms to expand clinical trial capabilities. This partnership will further enhance service offerings and provide biopharma companies with tools to accelerate clinical trial design, patient stratification, and data analysis.
Through this partnership, Precision for Medicine will leverage the SOPHiA DDMTM Platform’s advanced AI-driven algorithms to analyze complex multimodal data, including genomic, radiomic, and clinical data. This capability will allow biopharma companies to identify and target the most appropriate patient populations for clinical trials, accelerating biomarker discovery and improve diagnostic capabilities. This is crucial for precision medicine efforts in oncology, rare diseases, and genetic disorders, where understanding the specific genomic characteristics of each patient may enable more targeted therapies.
Additionally, MSK-ACCESS® powered with SOPHiA DDMTM, an innovative liquid biopsy test being deployed globally with the support of AstraZeneca, will be made available as a Precision for Medicine service for biopharma clients. Data generated by this genomically rich, globally deployed test will enable retrospective clinical trial data analysis and improve patient stratification. This capability allows biopharma companies to refine and optimize their clinical trial designs by better understanding how patients responded to previous treatments. This evidence-based approach can help companies fine-tune their drug development strategies, improve patient recruitment for trials, and gain deeper insights into the efficacy of therapies in real-world settings.
