Brainomix Showcases Growing Evidence for its Novel AI-Based Imaging Biomarkers in Lung Fibrosis

• The company unveiled a series of new studies highlighting the prognostic value of its imaging biomarkers in patients with fibrotic lung disease
• The studies reflect the company's expanding Life Science partnerships and academic collaborations with luminary research centers in the lung space

OXFORD, England and CHICAGO, May 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Brainomix, a pioneer in artificial intelligence (AI) imaging solutions to enable precision medicine, announced a series of new studies that were presented this week at the American Thoracic Society (ATS) Conference in San Diego.

"The studies presented this week at ATS are a reflection of our continual focus on scientific excellence and academic collaboration with both world-class institutions as well as with Life Science partners," noted Dr Michalis Papadakis, CEO and Co-Founder of Brainomix. "The results highlight the prognostic value of our novel Brainomix lung imaging biomarkers to accurately predict disease progression in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and non-IPF patients."

Key abstracts accepted and presented at ATS included:

• "Diagnosis and the role of imaging biomarkers in predicting outcomes for patients with Non-IPF Fibrotic ILD," was a research collaboration with Heidelberg University in which a cohort of 347 patients with non-IPF over a 10-year period was analyzed with Brainomix's novel lung imaging biomarker, the weighted reticulovascular score (WRVS). The results indicated WRVS was a strong predictor for death and independent risk factor for 10% Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) decline. "This study has demonstrated the prognostic value of the Brainomix WRVS imaging biomarker, which can be a valuable predictor of progressive disease in this cohort of patients with fibrotic non-IPF ILD," noted Prof Dr Michael Kreuter, Director for the Lung Center Mainz.
• "Differences in lung biomarker scores between treatment groups in post-hoc analysis of the ATLAS inhaled pirfenidone solution (AP01) for IPF clinical trials" was a research collaboration with Avalyn Pharma, a Seattle-based clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company. Brainomix lung imaging biomarkers (including WRVS) were studied in a post-hoc analysis of Avalyn's phase 1b clinical trial of inhaled pirfenidone (ATLAS study) in patients with IPF, with results showing that WRVS was associated with risk of future IPF progression in the low-dose pirfenidone group. "This research can assist in the optimisation of AI imaging tools to enrich clinical trials for progressive patients, to facilitate matching treatment arms and further explore novel trial end points," Dr Peter George, Senior Medical Director at Brainomix and Clinical Lead for ILD at Royal Brompton Hospital in London.
• "Lung CT biomarkers can stratify patients at risk of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis progression at 52 weeks: post-hoc analysis from a randomised control trial" was a research collaboration with AstraZeneca using the Phase 2 IPF tralokinumab clinical trial. WRVS was shown to accurately predict patients at baseline at risk of 52-week FVC decline. "These data suggests that our WRVS biomarker may enable more sophisticated design of future clinical trials," said Ross Stewart, Senior Business Development Manager, Pharma Partnerships, at Brainomix.
