KeyZell develops the first precision medicine system to fight breast and lung cancer
The biotechnology startup KeyZell, develops the first system of precision oncology medicine worldwide that selects the best personalised treatment for each type of patient.
KeyZell has developed OPS (Oncology Precision System), an intelligence Artificial solution that determines the best combination of therapies against breast and lung cancer through a machine learning system. This tool makes it easier for oncologists to select the most appropriate treatment for each patient, taking into account their individual genetic characteristics.
KEYZELL OPS, with 89% efficacy, is the only system of precision medicine for oncological use focused on treatment and patient care. In addition, it identifies patterns and makes predictions contemplating up to 112 biomarkers, helping in the prediction of the best personalised treatment that guarantees the highest survival rate at 5 years.
For its selection, the tool takes into account variables such as clinical analysis data, the patient's molecular DNA profile, the IHC (immuno-histochemical) profile, effectiveness, toxicity, etc.
The same treatment is often applied to patients with the same type of cancer, however, there are groups of patients who respond markedly differently. Therefore, the startup intends to continue developing this pioneering system worldwide and lead the biomedical revolution of precision medicine with KEYZELL OPS.
Iván Románico, head of oncology at the Ángeles Puebla Hospital, says: "We are witnessing the future of precision medicine with great enthusiasm and responsibility. Thanks to this type of tool, oncologists offer patients a more effective solution adjusted to their individual characteristics that undoubtedly has an impact on their quality of life."
"We want KEYZELL OPS to be the reference personalized treatment service for cancer in the field of precision medicine. With this tool, our goal is to reverse the mortality figures of this disease and make them more hopeful year after year," says José de Corral, CEO of KeyZell.
