CURATE.AI Optimized Modulation for Multiple Myeloma

Clinical trial applying CURATE.AI, a Phenotypic Precision Medicine (PPM) platform, to Bortezomib, Thalidomide, Cyclophosphamide and Lenalidomide dosing in multiple myeloma patients to show improvement in response.

In conventional combination chemotherapy, drug doses are typically determined using dose escalation to reach a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or via dose expansion to identify suitable regimen administration guideline, and the combinations are subsequently administered at fixed doses. During the course of treatment, the patient's response to therapy evolves and changes due to the time-dependent, dose dependent, and patient-specific nature of drug synergy and resulting efficacy and tolerability. To overcome this challenge, we have developed CURATE.AI, a Phenotypic Precision Medicine (PPM) platform, which has been clinically validated and used to prospectively optimize patient liver transplant immunosuppression, and tuberculosis therapy, among other indications. In this study, CURATE.AI may improve patient response by providing dose recommendations for Bortezomib, Thalidomide, Cyclophosphamide and Lenalidomide to the clinical team over the course of the patient's treatment.
