BOSTON and ROLLE, Switzerland, March 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- SOPHiA GENETICS (Nasdaq: SOPH), a cloud-native software company and a leader in data-driven medicine, and the French Kidney Cancer Research Network (UroCCR) collaborated on a study using a multimodal algorithm to help predict post-operative outcomes for those facing renal cell carcinoma (RCC), with the results recently published in npj Precision Oncology. The findings of the study showed the artificial intelligence (AI) model co-constructed by SOPHiA GENETICS and UroCCR provided a strong prediction for post-operative outcomes when compared to usual prognostic scores. This publication follows a prior collaboration that demonstrated the value of multimodal analysis on pre-operative kidney cancer upstaging.

Key Points: 
  • This publication follows a prior collaboration that demonstrated the value of multimodal analysis on pre-operative kidney cancer upstaging.
  • UroCCR is one of the world's largest collaborative kidney cancer networks with 51 multidisciplinary clinical teams across France.
  • In 2021, UroCCR partnered with SOPHiA GENETICS to develop an AI-based model to predict whether kidney cancer will progress from a localized tumor after surgery.
