Nucleai’s robust computational AI-powered spatial biology algorithm supports various image modalities (H&E, IHC, Multiplex) and cancer indications, offering a highly customizable, deployable solution across the drug development ecosystem. These capabilities earned Nucleai the position of one of the top 10 spatial biology companies in 2022.

"Multiplex imaging technologies have improved rapidly over the years; however, identifying actionable insights from all the data collected remains immensely challenging," says Avi Veidman, Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer of Nucleai. "This powerful synergy between Sirona Dx and Nucleai is very exciting as it will allow us to identify actionable spatial signatures that can predict response to immunotherapy."

Sirona Dx is recognized as the original pioneers of spatial biology, having launched the first spatial-omics CRO service to biopharma in 2018. Today, their technology-agnostic, spatial biology suite includes the leading multiplexed imaging platforms and combines deep technical expertise required to develop high-performance multiplexed assays as large as 50 markers. Sophisticated multiplexed tissue imaging capabilities contributed to their selection as a Top 10 CRO of 2021 by Medhealth Outlook.

"We are delighted to announce a partnership with Nucleai," said Andrew Brown, Ph.D. Chief Commercial Officer at Sirona Dx. "Nucleai’s AI-driven analytical capabilities are exceptional. Our combined expertise in multiplexed tissue assay development, data generation and state-of-the-art analysis will unlock new spatial insights and accelerate the spatial biology revolution in precision medicine."

COSELA® (Trilaciclib Hydrochloride for Injection) Now Approved in China to Decrease the Incidence of Chemotherapy-Induced Myelosuppression in Patients with Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (ES-SCLC)

On July 13, 2022 G1 Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: GTHX), a commercial-stage oncology company, reported that the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) has conditionally approved COSELA (trilaciclib hydrochloride for injection), which was jointly developed for use in Greater China by Simcere and G1 Therapeutics (Press release, G1 Therapeutics, JUL 13, 2022, View Source [SID1234616640]). COSELA is now indicated in China to decrease the incidence of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in adult patients when administered prior to a platinum/etoposide-containing regimen for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. As a result of receiving approval in China, G1 will receive a $13 million milestone payment. In total, G1 may receive up to $156M in total milestones. G1 may also receive double-digit royalties on annual net sales of COSELA in China.

"G1 congratulates our partner Simcere on rapidly progressing the development of COSELA in Greater China and successfully obtaining marketing approval from the National Medical Products Administration," said Jack Bailey, Chief Executive Officer of G1 Therapeutics. "China is one of the largest markets globally and there remains a great unmet medical need for an effective solution to prevent or reduce the debilitating myelosuppressive side effects of chemotherapy. We are excited Simcere will now be able to make COSELA available to ES-SCLC patients in Greater China, which represents a critical initial milestone in our mission of improving the lives of those impacted by cancer globally."

It is predicted that, by 2040, the number of new cancer patients requiring chemotherapy in China will reach 4.2 million. While chemotherapy remains the cornerstone of treatment for many cancer types, its toxic side effects have widespread impact on patients and can lead to dose reductions or delays, both of which diminish its therapeutic effect. According to Chinese statistics, myelosuppression is associated with more than 80% of chemotherapy drugs. G1 has partnered with Simcere to jointly conduct clinical trials of trilaciclib in colorectal cancer and triple negative breast cancer.
