PathAI Launches MET Predict on AISight to Enhance NSCLC Assessments

PathAI

PathAI, a global leader in artificial intelligence (AI) and digital pathology solutions, today announced the launch of MET Predict † on the AISight Ⓡ † Image management system (IMS). MET Predict is an AI-powered algorithm designed to help pathologists identify non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors that may be more likely to have MET exon 14 skipping (METex14) or MET amplification, directly from an H&E whole slide image. NSCLC accounts for approximately 85% of lung cancers 1, with 3–4% of these cases involving METex14 2. Today, approved targeted therapies are available for patients with NSCLC who harbor METex14 mutations. Additionally, MET amplification occurs in 1–6% of NSCLC cases 3 and is emerging as a potential biomarker in lung cancer. Traditional molecular testing for MET alterations such as exon 14 skipping or amplification is often hindered by high costs, time- and tissue-consuming procedures, and the need for specialized equipment and trained personnel. These factors limit its accessibility and scalability, prompting the need for more efficient and cost-effective methods to assess MET alterations. “The integration of MET Predict into AISight marks a significant leap forward in utilizing AI to enhance the efficiency of NSCLC tumor assessments, particularly in identifying those with potential genetic alterations,” said Andy Beck, MD, PhD, co-founder and CEO of PathAI. “By providing rapid and precise biomarker insights directly from H&E images, MET Predict equips pathologists with the essential information needed to drive timely and accurate NSCLC evaluations.” MET Predict has the potential to significantly improve the efficiency of biomarker evaluation and molecular testing paradigms. The algorithm identifies >90% of MET altered tumors while additionally providing insights that may preserve tissue in 30% of cases where the likelihood of MET alteration is low. With the addition of MET Predict, AISight expands its toolset with the latest technology to assist pathologists in lung cancer assessments. This innovation addresses a crucial gap in pathology labs — the need for accessible, rapid, and comprehensive molecular tools that provide actionable insights from biopsy samples. †:MET Predict and AISight are for Research Use Only.

This Company Is Betting On Innovation To Make A Splash In Multiple Healthcare Markets And It Hit Multiple Milestones This Year

Benzinga

By James Blacker, Benzinga Therma Bright Inc. (OTC: TBRIF), a growing player in the healthcare industry, is making visible strides with its diverse portfolio of innovative medical devices and diagnostic solutions designed to address unmet clinical needs. With its flagship product the Venowave VW5, a product designed to enhance blood circulation, Therma Bright is aiming to capitalize on a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) treatment market expected to grow to $1.62 billion by 2032. Beyond this, the company’s ambitions expand to developing cutting-edge technology to tackle a variety of health challenges, from respiratory disease management to pain relief. Over 2024, Therma Bright secured multiple milestones that indicate the growing attention it is receiving. The Venowave: A Potential Game-Changer in DVT Prevention The Venowave VW5 is an FDA-approved circulation booster designed to improve circulation in the lower extremities. Worn on the calf, the lightweight device stimulates blood flow with wave-like motions that massage the leg, forcing blood from the feet and legs back to the heart and preventing the formation of blood clots. This is particularly effective in cases of DVT, a condition that affects up to 900,000 people in the U.S. and that, if left untreated, can lead to serious complications such as a pulmonary embolism. Beyond just DVT, the Venowave has a range of other healthcare applications, such as managing symptoms of post-thrombotic syndrome, preventing primary thrombosis and treating lymphedema. In an encouraging sign for the product, Therma Bright announced on 27 August that it has secured a nationwide U.S. distribution partner for Venowave. Subject to the success of an initial sales program, this unnamed partner has committed to acquiring inventory worth $2.38 million. Also in August, Therma Bright received the permanent Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) code from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services' Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). This crucial designation increases the product’s credibility and could be a key catalyst to help propel Therma Bright to a leadership position in the DVT treatment market. Preva®: Clot Retrieval For Stroke Treatment The global coronary stents market was estimated to be $8.82 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 7.82% to reach $16.14 billion by 2030. Positioning itself to take a share of this growing market, Therma Bright has added to its diverse portfolio of late-stage products by investing in Inretio, the developer of the Preva® clot-retrieval device. The company hopes this device will revolutionize ischemic stroke treatment by improving effectiveness and preventing complications during thrombectomy procedures. The technology, which recently completed its third successful human trial, promises to offer a new approach to clot retrieving that reduces the need for repeated maneuvers and minimizes the risk of embolization. With more than 690,000 ischemic stroke patients in the U.S. each year, this potentially game-changing device could be the breakthrough in clot retrieval needed to significantly improve their lives. Another Growth Opportunity In The COPD Market Another of Therma Bright’s ventures that may hold promise is its stake in InStatin, a company developing inhaled statin therapies for conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Unlike traditional oral therapies, InStatin targets the lungs directly, and the company hopes to provide a more effective treatment option for a range of respiratory conditions that affect millions of people worldwide. With the COPD market alone estimated to be worth over $16 billion annually, Therma Bright could stand to benefit from InStatin’s growth trajectory as its therapies advance through pre-clinical trials. Therma Bright previously owned a 17% stake in InStatin, but this percentage is set to increase as the company recently announced that it has expanded its investment. More In The Pipeline Therma Bright’s innovation pipeline doesn’t stop there. Other products in development include a Digital Cough Test app developed in partnership with AI4LYF. The app uses AI to monitor respiratory diseases based on the sound of a person’s cough. The cough data is reviewed by a doctor via an AI dashboard who can use the information to then treat the patient. Other products in Therma Bright’s portfolio include the Benepod™ Hot & Cold Contrast Therapy Device for Pain Relief, the AcuVid™ COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test Solution, InterceptCS™ for at-home cold sore prevention and the TherOZap™ thermal therapy for insect bite relief. Why You May Want To Keep An Eye On Therma Bright With the global DVT market expected to reach $1.5 billion by 2032 and other innovations like the Preva® device and inhaled statins addressing multi-billion-dollar markets, Therma Bright could be well-positioned to capture a significant market share in multiple growing markets. Investors may want to keep an eye on this small company with a current market cap of about $20 million whose stock has rallied over 350% this year (as of Sep. 5) as it expands its presence in industries worth billions of dollars.

Brand Engagement Network (NASDAQ: BNAI) Expands Global Footprint As It Secures $5.9M in Private Placement Financing And Enters $50M Standby Equity Purchase Agreement

Benzinga

By Anthony Termini, Benzinga Brand Engagement Network (NASDAQ: BNAI) (BEN), which creates artificial intelligence (AI) solutions for consumer engagement using human-like avatars as the interface to communicate with customers, hit multiple milestones recently Early in September, the company entered into an agreement with IntelliTek Health. IntelliTek Health is a subsidiary of SmarTek21 and creates solutions for virtual assistants that interact with medical patients. It develops clinical and patient-facing tools and focuses exclusively on bringing AI-enabled productivity and services to the healthcare industry. What The IntelliTek Deal Means For BEN The agreement grants BEN a worldwide license to provide AI-driven solutions to support healthcare operations and optimize patient engagement throughout the United States, Australia, New Zealand, India and Europe. Together, BEN and IntelliTek will offer a suite of AI-driven healthcare solutions to support and execute a broad range of tasks and operations that serve both medical professionals and patients. The agreement is intended to seek synergies in the strengths and solutions of both companies. Brand Engagement Network will combine its Healthcare AI Assistant, Sandy – which serves as a direct interface resource for patients – with IntelliTek’s Personal Virtual Assistant (PVA). Sandy can help patients schedule appointments and obtain up-to-date information on prescription drugs. The IntelliTek PVA is part of a collaboration with Samsung Mobile Solutions and other leading U.S. and multinational telecommunications companies. The deal also combines BEN’s AI technology with IntelliTek’s Clinical Virtual Assistant (CVA). The CVA is specifically designed for clinical teams looking to reduce their administrative burden. BEN reports that it has been shown to improve administrative efficiency by up to 50%, creating the opportunity to improve patient throughput by up to 17%. Another solution rolled into the agreement is IntelliTek’s hands-free and voice-enabled Document Search AI. This device-agnostic tool can quickly and securely search for and retrieve specific medical information in real time from many different document formats sourced from a wide variety of different repositories. Martyn Molnar, Chief Executive of Products at Intellitek Health, says that the “cooperation with BEN will enable both companies to offer a comprehensive suite of AI solutions for the healthcare industry, which is experiencing critical challenges surrounding workforce and resource availability.” “We’re proud to have found a like-minded ally in IntelliTek, as we both strive to elevate patient experiences and healthcare professional productivity with innovative AI technology,” added Paul Chang, BEN’s CEO. The two executives believe that together the platforms can serve as an end-to-end suite of solutions that offers continuous support to improve healthcare access and outcomes. They believe the collaboration will help each company broaden its customer base. It is expected that the agreement will expand the reach of both companies’ solutions to a larger number of healthcare providers and patients and increase access to life-saving AI technology. IntelliTek delivers highly curated products that automate over 2 billion interactions reaching more than 600 million global users, reports the company. The company and its parent, SmarTek21, ensure seamless connectivity of more than 100 pre-built integrations to support AI-driven solutions. Together they provide intelligent workflow automation across healthcare, telecommunications, aviation, finance and global eCommerce platforms. The healthcare industry represents one of BEN’s primary target markets. The company’s full-stack platform includes front-end, middleware and back-end functionality through scalable, customizable solutions that it says are fully optimized to deliver superior customer experiences, productivity and performance. New Financing Transactions Prior to the IntelliTek Health announcement, BEN completed two investment transactions that provide the company with increased financial flexibility and access to capital to support its ongoing strategic growth initiatives. In August, BEN closed a $5.9 million private placement, which will provide funding to the company on a monthly basis through the first quarter of 2025. The investment was supported by a group of BEN’s existing stockholders, who agreed to purchase nearly 1.2 million shares of common stock. The transaction was consummated at a price per share that was materially above the trading price of the company’s common stock at the time. For each share purchased, investors received an additional share of common stock from certain other existing stockholders. In exchange for transferring those shares, certain transferring stockholders received an aggregate of 960,000 warrants to purchase shares of BEN’s common stock at $5.00 per share. Concurrent with the private placement, BEN also entered into a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (SEPA) with Yorkville Advisors. The SEPA provides BEN with the ability, but not the obligation, to cause Yorkville to purchase up to the aggregate amount of $50 million of BEN common stock. The SEPA is intended to provide BEN with access to capital on an as-needed basis to fund its business plan as it seeks to execute its growth and revenue strategies. The SEPA cannot be used until a registration statement is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These two transactions are intended to help the company expand market validation and scale production of its human-like conversational AI assistants.
