ConcertAI and Bayer to boost precision oncology with AI and ML insights
ConcertAI has announced an agreement that will allow Bayer to utilise its Translational360 and AI software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions to expedite clinical development in precision oncology using insights from AI and machine learning (ML). The multi-year agreement will completely utilise Translational360, a recently introduced integrated research-grade longitudinal clinical molecular database. This database incorporates de-identified oncology patient data from CancerLinQ, encompassing more than nine million records across all 50 US states. ConcertAI notes that Translational360 merges genomic, clinical, transcriptomic and whole-slide imaging data from comprehensive molecular testing, offering genomic and phenotypical insights. Transcriptomics, a key component of biopharma translational sciences, enables researchers to know the molecular mechanisms of diseases, patient response, and inter-patient variability. These insights are crucial for the development of new therapeutics. By integrating data solutions and AI, the company aims to help choose programmes with the likelihood of success and to design studies that are informed by multi-genomic, transcriptomic, and multi-modal data. ConcertAI CEO Jeff Elton said: 'This partnership furthers causal biological inferences where multi-modal and multi-molecular data can be integrated with AI/ML-based approaches across discovery, translation, and development, accelerating oncology pipelines, allowing our biopharma partners to deliver better medicines faster. 'This partnership builds on a multi-year history of working together and is unique in offering both tissue and liquid biopsy molecular data, allowing insights into patterns of treatment response, acquisition of resistance, AI modelling of likely success and benefit, informing programme priority and clinical study design.' Bayer Pharma research and development (R&D) Data Science and AI head Sai Jasti said: 'By combining ConcertAI's powerful data solutions with Bayer's scientific and AI expertise, we aim to enhance the use of real-world data and cutting-edge AI to boost R&D productivity and ultimately deliver transformative precision therapies to those who need them.'

ConcertAI Announces Strategic Agreement with Bayer to Accelerate Clinical Development in Precision Oncology
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ConcertAI announced a multi-year agreement with Bayer to leverage ConcertAI's Translational360™ and AI SaaS solutions, which use artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML)-derived insights to accelerate clinical development in precision oncology. The agreement will fully leverage ConcertAI's newly launched Translational360™, an integrated research-grade longitudinal clinical molecular database that taps into the CancerLinQ network of de-identified cancer patient data from over 9 million records coming from all 50 states in the U.S. Translational360™ combines clinical, genomic, transcriptomic, and whole-slide imaging (WSI) from comprehensive molecular testing for deep phenotypical and genomic insights. Transcriptomics is increasingly a foundation of biopharma translational sciences, allowing researchers to understand disease molecular mechanisms, basis of patient response, and inter-patient variability that's essential for developing new therapeutics. Too often, clinical trial results in early phases are ambiguous with idiosyncratic positive and negative responses. The integrated data solutions and advanced AI enable selection of programs with the highest likelihood of success and design trials informed by multi-modal, multi-genomic, and transcriptomic data and AI. 'This partnership furthers causal biological inferences where multi-modal and multi-molecular data can be integrated with AI/ML-based approaches across discovery, translation, and development, accelerating oncology pipelines, allowing our biopharma partners to deliver better medicines faster,' said Jeff Elton, Ph.D., CEO of ConcertAI. 'This partnership builds on a multi-year history of working together and is unique in offering both tissue and liquid biopsy molecular data, allowing insights into patterns of treatment response, acquisition of resistance, AI modeling of likely success and benefit, informing program priority and clinical study design.' 'As cancer rates continue to rise, we're committed to advancing next-generation solutions that can speed up drug discovery and clinical development, enabling us to bring precision oncology treatments to patients faster,' said Sai Jasti, Head of Data Science and AI for Pharma R&D at Bayer. 'By combining ConcertAI's powerful data solutions with Bayer's scientific and AI expertise, we aim to enhance the use of real-world data and cutting-edge AI to boost R&D productivity and ultimately deliver transformative precision therapies to those who need them.' 'More AI-designed new molecular entities are progressing faster in first-in-human trials which is a great milestone,' said Claudio D'Ambrosio, Ph.D., Chief Revenue Officer of ConcertAI. 'Our entire R&D process has been historically built on studying controlled cell lines and animal models that don't reflect the interspecies differences, the physiology, and the different biological barriers we have in humans. We are flipping this paradigm on its head. We need to start with human cancer genomes and phenotypes and 'reverse translate.' Unlike only a few years ago, we now have powerful human data.'
