Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI), a knowledge-driven company focused on applying artificial intelligence (“AI”) to personalized medicine and drug discovery, has announced that TumorGenesis, a division of the company, has received a license for an additional 71 unique ovarian cancer call lines. The licensing comes from England-based Ximbio, the largest nonprofit in the world dedicated to life science reagents. TumorGenesis now has a total of 96 unique patient-derived ovarian cancer cell lines. Research such as that conducted by TumorGenesis is the foundation of preclinical research and development. “It is remarkable that the UK cancer researchers using the same media mixes now being offered by TumorGenesis for researchers around the world, independently isolated, and identified another unique set of ovarian cancer cells from patients,” said TumorGenesis president Richard Gabriel. “Adding these 71 cell lines to our existing 25 cell lines (11 of the first 25 are representative of about 95% of ovarian tumors) adds a powerful new resource for researchers. The media used to grow the novel and unique ovarian cancer cell lines, licensed by Predictive Oncology and its partner, GLG Pharma, is able to retain 95%+ of the cell’s DNA and RNA as well as crucial proteomic signatures. . . . This new media will allow researchers around the world to isolate and culture ovarian cancer cell types and, in addition, culture them reproducibly to find new targets for the diagnostics, treatment, or any other needed studies on the close interrelationship of ovarian cancer tumor populations and how they are able to fool a patient’s immune system.”
