OncXerna develops an AI-based Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) Platform The research and development to find a cure for cancer has been an ongoing challenge for the medical field resulting in continuous improvements in cancer treatments. One of the directions in cancer treatment research is to analyze cancer-causing mutations in the genome. Startups and scaleups are developing research platforms and techniques to better understand the underlying causes of cancer. US-America startup OncXerna develops an RNA expression biomarker panel (TME Panel-1) that is specific to the tumor microenvironment (TME). The solution allows clinical researchers to develop algorithms for effective treatment using RNA signature derived from biomarker panels. The solution aims to match the patient to the treatment rather than generalizing treatments for the whole population. Other fourcompanies are Perceiv AI, Precomb Therapeutics, AUM Biosciences and AceTech.

In combination with its innovative precision medicine platform, the Xerna TME Panel, OncXerna leverages artificial intelligence technologies and RNA expression-based biomarkers to match a specific patient’s tumor with the drugs best suited to treat that tumor. Our current clinical pipeline includes the company’s lead product candidate, Navicixizumab, which is a bispecific antibody that targets both VEGF and DLL4 to treat solid tumors and is currently entering a Phase 2/3 study for the treatment of ovarian cancer. By integrating our novel Xerna TME Platform with our deep expertise in clinical development, we believe we can accelerate the development, approval and commercialization of drug product candidates and bring meaningful new treatments to patients at an earlier point in time in their disease progression.
