Problem
Predicting patient response to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor cancer therapies remains a significant challenge, leading to ineffective treatment strategies and potentially compromised patient outcomes. Current methods lack the ability to comprehensively evaluate the complex interplay between the tumor, patient, and therapy, hindering personalized treatment decisions.
Solution
OncoHost offers the PROphet® platform, a proteomic analysis tool that leverages AI and machine learning to predict individual patient response to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. The platform analyzes a single blood sample to generate a personalized PROphet® score, providing clinicians with actionable insights prior to initiating treatment. By evaluating the tumor and host microenvironment, the PROphet® score enables informed decisions regarding first-line immunotherapy, with the goal of improving overall survival rates. The test identifies resistance-associated proteins, offering a deeper understanding of treatment response mechanisms. This comprehensive approach facilitates the selection of optimal therapeutic strategies tailored to each patient's unique biological profile.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes oncologists and healthcare providers specializing in cancer treatment, specifically those utilizing PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, seeking to improve patient outcomes through personalized treatment strategies.
