CULVER CITY, Calif., May 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Avenda Health, an AI healthcare company creating the future of personalized prostate cancer care, unveils the results of a new UCLA study examining the role of AI in identifying tumor margins and predicting the efficacy of focal therapy treatments. The study titled "Software to Determine Extent of Tumor Margins in Focal Therapy," was presented at the 2024 American Urological Association's (AUA) annual meeting by Wayne Brisbane, MD, assistant professor at UCLA Health. It demonstrated that Unfold AI, Avenda Health's AI-powered cancer mapping technology, was a better predictor of focal therapy success than other factors, including the size or grade of the tumor.

Key Points: 
  • It demonstrated that Unfold AI , Avenda Health's AI-powered cancer mapping technology, was a better predictor of focal therapy success than other factors, including the size or grade of the tumor.
  • In the study, FDA-cleared Unfold AI technology was retrospectively applied to 118 previously untreated men undergoing hemi-gland cryotherapy for prostate cancer ablation.
  • MRI-guided biopsies, both targeted and systematic, were performed before cryotherapy and six months after cryotherapy to assess treatment outcomes.
  • "This more comprehensive approach enhances our ability to predict treatment outcomes and tailor interventions effectively to individual patient needs."
