mTuitive and PathPresenter Partner to Bring Structured Pathology Reporting and Compliance to Digital Pathology Workflow

PathPresenter

mTuitive, Inc. and PathPresenter Corporation today announced a new partnership to deliver an enhanced pathologist reporting experience that will unify powerful digital tools, AI algorithms, and synoptic reporting to produce precise, comprehensive, data-driven reports that enable precision patient care and unparalleled retrospective analysis. Together, the two organizations bring their medical and technical expertise to laboratories and hospitals ensuring compliance with national requirements while fueling important analytic and reporting work downstream. mTuitive’s flagship product, CAP eFRM™, integrates with PathPresenter image management system using the latest SMART-on-FHIR technology for a seamless interface that boosts efficient workflows for their users. The partnership fuels the tight integration between PathPresenter and mTuitive, allowing PathPresenter to prepopulate fields in CAP eFRM, pulled directly from PathPresenter’s digital viewer. This boosts physician efficiency without any detriment to the quality or completeness of their work — in fact, required fields and other operations improve and ensure comprehensiveness of these reports, which can be signed out directly in PathPresenter, xPert, or the laboratory’s information system. “As digital adoption in pathology grows, healthcare providers will need to develop clear strategies for effectively managing the workload that faces the dwindling pathologist population,” commented Imogen Fitt, Market Analyst at Signify Research. “Automating and standardizing the reporting process will increase efficiency by enabling pathologists to focus on more complex tasks. Ultimately this will be essential in providing the short-term ROI providers seek.” A customized pre-analytic workflow starts in the PathPresenter image management system by prioritizing cases to be reviewed. Contextually understood data is extracted using AI algorithms run on the images and prepopulates critical diagnostic values into reporting protocols in CAP eFRM. CAP eFRM allows the pathologist to complete their diagnosis and build a comprehensive synoptic report that can be signed out or returned to the APLIS. In the analytical phase, real-time results are exchanged between PathPresenter’s powerful real-time tools, third-party plug-ins, and CAP eFRM. Discrete, coded data is retained with the annotated images for future use. The structured data in CAP eFRM and PathPresenter can be searched and utilized for reporting and analytics, sharing downstream with data lakes and registries, and variety of services like identifying images to train machine learning models, validating AI results, or identifying appropriate tissue for research projects. “Automating reporting workflow will be a boon to digital pathology adoption in institutions,” added Patrick Myles, CEO of PathPresenter. “Partnering with reporting workflow leader, mTuitive, is an important step forward to help deliver on the promise of increased efficiency in digital workflows.” “This partnership will unleash the power of the data that pathologists collect while also continuing to make for more accurate and more efficient reporting,” said Colin Murphy, CEO of mTuitive, Inc. mTuitive and PathPresenter maintain standards put forth by organizations like College of American Pathologists (CAP) promoting best practices for reporting and compliance with accreditation requirements. The information captured through the digital viewer and within the reports can also be SNOMED-CT coded to assist in better communication between physicians and even faster workflow within the laboratory’s system. About PathPresenter PathPresenter is the image sharing platform for pathology, on a mission to democratize access to the world’s pathology knowledge by connecting pathologists to the vast expertise of their colleagues globally and providing a practical platform to access and use best-in-class AI models. Founded in 2017 by dermatopathologist and digital pathology pioneer, Dr. Rajendra Singh, PathPresenter has been adopted by 25+ tier one medical institutions for clinical care, education, and research, and has built a thriving community of 45,000+ users in 172 countries to easily view and share digital pathology images and knowledge. For more information visit www.pathpresenter.com. About mTuitive, Inc. Based out of Massachusetts, mTuitive was the first company to license the Cancer Protocols content from the CAP for pathology and the ACS for surgery. mTuitive has been leading the way with synoptic reporting in healthcare since 2003. Co-founded by a surgical pathologist who saw how much powerful information is locked inside unsearchable, unstructured text. The company developed new technology and proprietary authoring tools to create reports that would be easy-to-use for physicians, vastly improving the workflow while ensuring comprehensiveness of the reports and gained much success worldwide through its innovative approaches. Eventually partnering with the College on the CAP eFRM pathology reporting solution, mTuitive has also created similar reporting offerings for surgery, mental health, radiology, and more.

Syntekabio and MDBioLab Collaborate on Groundbreaking Anticancer Research (226330:KOSDAQ)

Syntekabio, Inc.

Syntekabio (226330:KOSDAQ)(226330:KS), an AI drug discovery and development company, announced a joint research partnership with MDBioLab, an innovative new anticancer drug development company based in South Korea. Syntekabio’s AI platform DeepMatcher® is used to predict compound-target protein binding to identify the mechanism of action for MD102, an oral delivery drug candidate for the indications for renal cell carcinoma and triple-negative breast cancer developed by MDBioLab. DeepMatcher® is also expected to support the expansion of MD102 for alternative diseases. MD102 is the first-in-class small molecule drug candidate for an inhibitor of Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) that is a cancer-specific target to participate in both facilitating and inhibiting apoptosis, playing both anti- and pro-apoptotic roles. Its anticancer efficacy through TG2 inhibition was successfully confirmed via in vivo xenograft tumor-model test. It is currently under development as a small molecule therapeutics for kidney cancer. TG2—the target protein of MD102—changes drastically its protein structure depending on the environment in and outside of the cell. Hence, its protein function and related diseases also vary accordingly. Both companies are confident that using DeepMatcher® to predict the interaction mechanism of MD102 and TG2 will provide a critical insight to understand the mechanism of action in details; therefore, it effectively supports future drug development strategies. DeepMatcher® is ideal for mechanism of action (MOA) research, as it examines indication expansion of existing candidates that have already been derived, and accurately screens and optimizes new candidates as well. Hyun-chul Jung, head of R&D at MDBioLab, said, “We welcome this joint research opportunity with Syntekabio. As a global leader in AI-based drug discovery and development platforms, Syntekabio is a powerful partner to strengthen our R&D competitiveness. DeepMatcher® technology will play a crucial role in the acceleration of innovative new anti-cancer drug development projects.” “MDBioLab is a formidable industry innovator in development of first-in-class therapeutics for anti-cancer target proteins,” said Syntekabio CEO Jong-sun Jung. “Our commitment to developing innovative new drugs is deeply rooted in the synergy based on Syntekabio’s advanced AI technology and MDBioLab’s R&D capabilities. Starting with MD102, we look forward to broadening and deepening our collaborations in the future.” For business development meetings and information about Syntekabio’s products and services, contact the New York office at +1 (212) 371-2544 or admin@syntekabiousa.com.

Mighty Mitochondria: This Company is Developing A Novel Drug for Kidney Disease By Targeting The Powerhouse Of Human Cells

Unicycive Therapeautics, Inc.

You may remember learning that mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cells, but do you know the dangers that result if these cell superheroes get sick? In addition to powering healthy cells, mitochondria are also important players in certain diseases. This is especially true in kidney disease. While kidney cells make up only 1% of our body weight, they consume over 10% of our daily energy supply. When either acute or chronic disease strikes these vital organs, the health of the mitochondria can literally be the difference between life and death. Specialized pores inside the mitochondria called mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pores regulate programmed cell death—or apoptosis. Under disease conditions, MPT pores are stuck open allowing fluid to rush in causing swelling which leads to the death of the cell. What if you could close these pores? Would that restore the normal function of damaged mitochondria and possibly be a cure for disease? That’s just what a California-based biotechnology company specializing in diseases of the kidney is hoping to do. Unicycive Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: UNCY) recently announced findings from a preclinical trial for their drug called UNI-494 that reduced a known biomarker of ischemic injury that is present in acute kidney injury (AKI), a result described as “very encouraging” by a leading expert in the field of AKI research. UNI-494 is a potent activator of the mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate-sensitive (ATP) potassium channel (mitoKATP). That’s important because when these channels are activated, they close the MPT pores and prevent the damage that leads to cell death. Mitochondrial dysfunction is closely associated with kidney issues, including (AKI). Affecting over 13 million people worldwide each year, AKI increases the risk of mortality by 23.9% in adults and 13.8% in children. Companies like DaVita Inc. (NYSE: DVA) and Akebia Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: AKBA) are among the companies seeking solutions to a variety of renal diseases. Unbelievably, however, there are still no Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs for AKI. Sadly, damage to mitochondria is seen in other diseases as well, including cardiovascular, liver and eye degeneration. While Unicycive is initially focused on producing a treatment for AKI and chronic kidney disease (CKD), it believes that the mechanism of action of UNI-494 may also be applicable for the treatment of other diseases where the mitochondria are affected. The company is now beginning its next milestone, filing to begin Phase 1 human trials of the drug. “We are excited to report this key finding,” Unicycive CEO Dr. Shalabh Gupta said. “We remain on track to file a regulatory submission by the end of 2022 that will allow us to initiate our Phase 1 study with UNI-494.” If the FDA approves the drug, it would be the first drug for AKI available on the market. Unicycive Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing novel treatments for kidney diseases. Unicycive’s lead drug, Renazorb, is a novel phosphate binding agent being developed for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia. UNI-494 is a patent-protected new chemical entity in late preclinical development for the treatment of acute kidney injury. This post contains sponsored advertising content.

How Trauma Can Affect Disaster Survivors

The Chicago School of Professional Psychology

Beyond the physical devastation of hurricanes, floods, earthquakes and other natural disasters, there could be emotional and psychological trauma with long-lasting impact. According to the National Institute of Health, the negative mental health effects of a disaster such as Hurricane Ian are not unusual, especially among children, women and the dependent elderly population who suddenly feel even more vulnerable. “Any disaster has the potential to trigger psychological/emotional distress and even post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders,” said Dr. Michele Nealon, Psy.D., President of The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. “Studies show that suicide can increase 23 percent or more after a catastrophic event and minor symptoms can quickly escalate.” Dr. Nealon says disaster survivors may experience many different signs and symptoms, including: Reliving the traumatic event as if it were happening again (flashbacks) Upsetting dreams or nightmares about the traumatic event Avoiding thinking or talking about places, activities or people that remind you of the traumatic event Negative thoughts about yourself, other people or the world Lack of interest in activities you once enjoyed Trouble sleeping, eating or concentrating For children 6 years old and younger, signs and symptoms may also include: Re-enacting the traumatic event or aspects of the traumatic event through play Frightening dreams that may or may not include aspects of the traumatic event Anyone experiencing any of these symptoms, should be encouraged to check in with a mental health professional or their primary care physician to access the support they need, advises Dr. Nealon. “For the thousands who are affected by something like Hurricane Ian--many of whom live in rural areas or are from underprivileged communities-- access to counselors and psychologists may be difficult. As natural disasters continue to increase and worsen, we need to do a better job of ensuring that survivors can get the services they need. Developing the mental health pipeline of diverse mental health practitioners is more important than ever before,” she said. About The Chicago School of Professional Psychology Integrating theory with hands-on experience, The Chicago School of Professional Psychology provides education rooted in a commitment to innovation, service, and community for thousands of diverse students across the United States and globally. Founded in 1979, the nonprofit, regionally accredited university now features campuses in iconic locations across the country (Chicago, Southern California, Washington, D.C., New Orleans, Dallas) and online. To spark positive change in the world where it matters most, The Chicago School has continued to expand its educational offerings beyond the field of psychology to offer more than 30 degrees and certificates in the professional fields of health services, education, counseling, business, and more. Through its engaged professional model of education, commitment to diversity and inclusion, and an extensive network of domestic and international professional partnerships, The Chicago School’s students receive real-world training opportunities that reflect their future careers.
