The xCures platform will track outcomes and clinical endpoints to validate CureScience’s assays and research protocols, thereby leveraging CureScience’s diagnostic assays and growing precision medicine resources. This synergy will be highly beneficial for patients and doctors dealing with advanced cancer by recognizing and targeting specific patients and patient populations that may benefit from a particular test or treatment.
"xCures’ collaboration with CureScience presents a significant step towards reaching our mutual goal to help advanced cancer patients," stated Mika Newton, xCures’ CEO. "Together, we will be able to identify better treatments and treatment regimens through the use of real-world data, scalable technologies, as well as patient advocacy and empowerment."
Besides the benefits this collaboration can deliver to patients and doctors, it can also provide insight into novel assays for CureScience to develop. Results obtained will be key for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies focused on cancer therapeutics and diagnostics and enable negotiations of broader access to investigational and approved therapies.
"One of our goals is to empower patients to make informed decisions. A collaboration with xCures on patient-facing and outcomes tracking infrastructure provides a significant value towards this goal," stated Shashaanka Ashili, CEO of CureScience. "This collaboration provides an opportunity to identify and implement joint clinical and translational opportunities that will lead towards achieving personalized precision medicine goals."
