IAG announced new partnership in development of novel, targeted T-cell enhancing immuno-oncology therapeutics
Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Image Analysis Group Partner to use advanced imaging strategies to develop monoclonal antibody therapeutics against solid tumors.
BOSTON, MA, USA and LONDON, UK – April 16, 2020
IAG has partnered with the Boston-based Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (https://www.pieris.com/) to use quantitative image analysis methodologies, such as Radiomics to develop their novel asset, which is a monoclonal antibody therapeutic agent against solid tumors.
In this collaboration, IAG will provide expertise on the imaging methodologies, which include Computed tomography (CT) radiomics as a means of early detection of tumor’s response to therapy. This approach is poised to not only provide invigorating scientific endpoints but also offer the means to design and execute trials in a more efficient way.
Dr Olga Kubassova of IAG comments, “We are very excited to partner with Pieris on this project, in which we leverage Radiomics in the development of a very promising immunotherapeutic agent. There is tremendous potential in this methodology, not only as a standalone but even more so when combined with genomics and pathomics.”
Markus Ziettl, the CMO of Pieris shares his thoughts about this project, “Radiomics is a very exciting image analysis approach that provides non-invasive imaging biomarkers that work as surrogate markers for outcomes. When correlated with clinicopathologic outcomes, radiomic signatures can not detect the immunotherapy response earlier but also more accurately.”
