OSLO, Norway–(BUSINESS WIRE)–OncoImmunity has become the first company to obtain a CE-IVD mark for
the clinical use of a machine-learning based neoantigen prediction
technology. This quality assurance certification represents an important
step in raising the standards for the use of neoantigen prediction
technologies for the design of personalized cancer vaccines and cell
therapies.
The certification means that personalized cancer vaccine and cell
therapy companies can now meet their own quality assurance requirements
for their clinical development by leveraging OncoImmunity’s proven
quality assurance methodology. OncoImmunity’s neoantigen prediction
technology, known as the Immuneoprofiler™, allows cancer
immunotherapy companies to gain access to a quality assured prediction
technology that also has superior performance in predicting the
presentation of neoantigens to the tumor cell surface.

prediction and the need to select neoantigens for personalized cancer
immunotherapy to a high clinical standard. We have designed
machine-learning solutions to fill some of the gaps in the neoantigen
prediction challenge and this certification of the Immuneoprofiler™
will facilitate both cost-saving and time-efficient filing for the
accreditation of our partners cancer immunotherapy platforms”
