Find the best drugs for treating cancer
BEFORE treatment begins

We use functional assays and artificial intelligence to provide personalized predictions on survival and response.

Technology

We analyze traits of each patient’s cancer cells to predict his or her survival and response specific to the choice of chemotherapeutic regimen. The predictive information can help to identify an optimal treatment for each patient.

Personalized Prediction Profile provides detailed information about your dog's cancer cells and predictions on response to anticancer drugs
New service

Personalized Prediction Profile for Canine Lymphoma and Leukemia

We measure how your dog's live cancer cells respond to different anticancer drugs. Then we use artificial intelligence (AI) to combine these measurements with other biological information to predict which drugs are most likely to be effective for your dog's lymphoma or leukemia.

Our mission is to empower clinicians and help patients with the best predictive information for personalized cancer care.
