Cellanyx has developed a powerful, first-in-class oncology phenotypic biomarker platform that combines two of the most exciting technologies in medical science: single cell analysis and machine learning/ Al. Phenotypic analysis of live cells from biopsies has transformative potential to modernize cancer pathology from the 150-year old analysis of morphology and artifacts to clear observation of cell behaviors of aggressiveness and metastatic potential. Recently, a proof-of-concept study of prostate cancer was published in Urology (Urology. 2019 Feb;124:198-206) predicted adverse pathologies with an area under the curve greater than 0.80 and also predicted Gleason pattern, stage, and adverse pathology with the same high precision.
