“Our collaboration blends high-quality, big data for digital biomarker development with a strategy to make the new biomarkers available for use within the medical and clinical research community.”
The collaboration brings together IMVARIA’s engineering expertise in digital biomarkers with Mayo Clinic’s know-how and data assets as part of the Validate pillar of Mayo Clinic Platform. The large-scale datasets will allow for comprehensive and reliable training of AI “brains” to discover and validate clinically relevant software-only biomarkers for cancer, analyzing complex text, numeric values, and images. The AI-powered digital biomarkers that result from this joint work, which will analyze a range of medical data types, will help clinicians gain unique insights into making better-informed decisions for treating patients with lung cancer.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the US, accounting for about 1 in 5 of all cancer deaths, according to the American Cancer Society. Each year, more people die of lung cancer than of colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined. In 2023, over 125,000 deaths have occurred due lung cancer, and nearly a quarter-of-a-million new lung cancer cases were identified.
