PathAI launches six additional oncology indications for PathExplore, an AI-powered pathology panel for spatial analysis of the tumor microenvironment

PathAI

PathAI, a global leader in AI-powered pathology, today announced the launch of six additional oncology indications for PathExplore™, the world’s first structured, standardized and scalable panel for characterization of the tumor microenvironment (TME) from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained whole-slide images (WSIs). The additional indications are ovarian, bladder, liver, small cell lung, lymphoma, and head and neck cancers. PathExplore first launched in April 2023 with 8 indications, including non-small cell lung, breast, colorectal, skin, gastric, prostate, kidney, and pancreatic cancers. With this expansion, PathExplore human interpretable features (HIFs) will now be available across 14 oncology indications to accelerate the next phase of precision oncology. The last decade has seen significant strides in oncology drug development, but challenges remain – many cancer patients do not respond to available treatments, and many aren’t eligible for potentially transformative therapies because of a lack of actionable biomarkers. Distinct cell populations, tissue structures, and their spatial distributions across the TME represent some of the most promising areas of oncology research, however; traditional approaches are unable to access the full resolution of histopathology data at scale. “Pathology is the only data modality to define and quantify morphological changes resulting from treatment or disease progression,” said Andy Beck, M.D., Ph.D., chief executive officer and co-founder of PathAI. “PathExplore enables researchers and drug developers to effortlessly investigate standard characteristics of the TME, such as the abundance of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, as well as spatial characteristics that were previously impossible to measure such as the ratio of lymphocytes to fibroblasts near the epithelial-stromal interface.” Since launch, PathExplore has established itself as the gold-standard in AI-powered digital pathology for oncology drug development. PathAI has partnered with over 50 pharma, biotech, academic, and laboratory partners to analyze >150,000 WSIs, resulting in 50+ publications and presentations. “PathExplore represents a tremendous leap forward in biological research, bypassing long standing constraints of many existing modalities by combining the widespread availability of H&E with the unprecedented resolution of AI,” said Mike Montalto, PhD, chief scientific officer at PathAI. “By expanding the availability of PathExplore’s structured pathology data into new disease areas, we’re empowering drug developers to continue to uncover insights that go beyond existing biomarkers.” To learn more about PathExplore, download our ebook that highlights real-world applications of AI-powered pathology solutions including PathExplore, in various stages of drug development programs. PathExplore is For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

How Lytus Digital’s Technology Partnership Services Are Emerging As A Catalyst For Innovation

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga To outsource or not is no longer a question of money, it is whether a company can innovate on its own. Increasingly, the answer is no – not without incurring extra costs and untold headaches. An in-house approach to IT comes at a premium, encompassing substantial costs such as high salaries, office spaces and perks to lure top talent. Economic downturns and layoffs can stall projects that are necessary to stay ahead of rivals. Standing still isn’t an option either. Studies show companies that embrace technology have a lead over those who don’t. Take a recent analysis of the banking sector by Harvard Business Review. From 2018 through 2022 digital leaders achieved total shareholder returns of 8.1% versus 4.9% for laggards. Why? Because technology helped them grow revenue and better contain expenses. Lytus Digital is capitalizing on the growing importance of digital transformation through its leading-edge solutions. The Speed Of Change From artificial intelligence to mixed reality, technological innovations are happening at a breakneck speed. Even if an enterprise has the means, implementing these innovations is proving difficult to do, which is why outsourcing is in such demand. The global IT services outsourcing market was valued at $639.59 billion in 2022 and is poised to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.0% from 2023 to 2030. Driving a lot of that growth is spending on software. Forecasts expect software sales to increase 12.3% in 2023 and 13.1% in 2024. Companies are looking to increase automation and productivity and are spending their investment dollars on software to achieve that. Growth is also being driven by rapid innovations that empower businesses to meet the changing demand of the commercial environment and better access innovation and intellectual property. That demand plays into Lytus Technologies Holdings Ptv. Ltd.'s (NASDAQ: LYT) sweet spot. The platform services company enriching the experience for users whether it’s streaming content, telemedicine or fintech services, recently launched Lytus Digital. Lytus Digital offers a suite of technology solutions to help enterprises explore and integrate cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, virtual and mixed reality and low-code rapid application development into their operational frameworks. Lytus Digital specializes in delivering advanced technological solutions tailored for enterprises, leveraging the power of next-generation technologies. The company is developing an ecosystem of modular platforms and customizable solutions that ensures a smooth integration into their clients’ existing business processes. All of that enables companies to embrace innovation with less risk. The last thing any enterprise can afford is to invest time and money into building a system that doesn’t work or can’t integrate. Every Industry Needs Digitalization Out of the gate, Lytus is going after the global SME sector which has long been ignored by tech providers. Lytus Digital creates superior technical strategies customized to their clients’ requirements while utilizing deep tech like artificial intelligence, IoT and machine learning. This allows the company to build out custom and modular products to give their customers a competitive edge. It’s not just SME firms that need a digital overhaul. Industry after industry is looking for digital innovation and to get it as easily and seamlessly as possible. “With this pursuit, we aim to establish strong partnerships in the industry to boost multinational growth, and to build accessible leading-edge technology-enabled products and solutions across various verticals,” Lytus’s board of directors said when announcing the new offering. Partnering For Innovation This idea of partnering to tap innovation is gaining popularity for good reason. By partnering with companies like Lytus Digital, enterprises can get access to what Lytus says are cost-effective technical solutions and specialized talent proficient in the latest technologies. Not to mention, they don’t have to worry about outages and downtimes, something many can’t say about their own in-house IT departments. The world is changing at a dizzying speed. Thanks to AI, machine learning, software-as-a-service, big data and a bevy of other technological advancements and innovations, companies have boosted revenue, gained new customers and cut costs. But going it alone is difficult. The ones that don’t do anything stand to fail. The ones that do it on their own, have to pay a premium. Lytus Technologies is changing that with Lytus Digital. It is leveling the playing field, taking the costs out of the equation and enabling even the smallest business to have the same cutting-edge technology as their larger rivals.

HTX

Super Gain, Shark Fin! HTX users can now log in to the HTX app to subscribe to Shark Fin on Thursdays. Every Thursday, HTX users can subscribe to 7-day Shark Fin products for attractive passive income. HTX Earn has undergone a brand-new upgrade, highlighted by Shark Fin. With a stunning and simple redesign as well as precise and smart filters, HTX continues to improve its Earn products for a better user experience. Shark Fin: Bonuses are offered for higher gains As the flagship product of HTX Earn, Shark Fin offers the highest 7-day yield in the industry, available for subscription every Thursday. Compared to other platforms, HTX regularly provides generous bonuses, ensuring its users enjoy tangible benefits. The product is named Shark Fin because its yield curve resembles a shark fin. HTX's Shark Fin is an evolution of options products and its pattern can be either bullish or bearish. It features fixed settlement dates, floating APYs, and basic returns. Users' returns from Shark Fin are determined by the accuracy of their predictions about future market trends. What sets Shark Fin apart is its ability to allow investors to pursue returns based on market fluctuations alongside basic returns. Its features and strengths include guaranteed principal, basic returns, higher returns on top of basic returns, short cycles that do not affect liquidity, and a combination of the advantages of American, European, and touch options. Ideal Users of Shark Fin: Prudent Investors and Beginners Alike With a low entry threshold, Shark Fin caters to a broad spectrum of investors, spanning the following categories: 1. Prudent investors: Shark Fin is a perfect choice for prudent investors who prioritize stability in their investments, as it protects their principal and offers basic returns. 2. Investors with moderate risk tolerance: If you aim for higher returns while maintaining investment stability, Shark Fin is an excellent choice. 3. Beginners: For novice investors, Shark Fin presents the advantage of basic returns, coupled with the opportunity to engage with potential yields through market fluctuations. 4. Entry-level options traders: Shark Fin is essentially an options product. It offers a practical way for investors to understand the mechanics and strategies of options trading before venturing into it. By investing in Shark Fin, investors can get a firsthand experience of how options work. Currently, HTX Earn offers 7-day Shark Fin products and 3-day Shark Fin products. It is worth mentioning that a new "Auto-Renewal" feature for Shark Fin products will be introduced, enabling automatic subscription to the same product using your principal from the previous cycle. This eliminates the need for repetitive manual operations in each phase. As a structured product, Shark Fin offers users basic returns unaffected by market fluctuations, along with the protection of their principal. Users can make subscriptions by navigating to "HTX Earn" -> "Shark Fin" during the subscription period.
