Authentic Relevance of LPBI Group’s Portfolio of IP as Proprietary Training Data Corpus for AI Initiatives at Big Pharma

Curators: Aviva Lev-Ari, PhD, RN and Stephen J. Williams, PhD

Updated on 11/29/2025

 

The Voice of Stephen J. Williams, PhD

Since the formation of the LPBI group in 2012, we have set as a goal to digitally curate and ontologize the biomedical literature.  These aspects of our mission, although not understandable to most at that time of our inception, was at the forefront of many academic efforts which became the springboard and initial conceptualization of today’s large language models.  In select universities like University of Illinois, University of Delaware, and the Technion, academics and researchers at Microsoft and Google, were laying the framework for  a semantic web, or Web 3.0.  Another company at the forefront of this idea was a company springing forth from Mathematica, Wolfram Research. This idea for a semantic web would entail the processes of curation, digitization, and ontology creation.  Their belief, such as ours, was  a precursor and much needed key to the puzzle of moving language from machine learning algorithms to the generative transformers used by artificial intelligence.

However as most efforts in this genre focused on general language, our efforts at LPBI Group were focused on the biomedical field, as we understood, from 2012, that the biomedical literature was unique, and so a unique strategy had to be developed to semantically understand biomedical text, even though at the time of 2012 GPTs were not even a concept.  However the potential for doing biomedical text analysis was there, and LPBI Group responded by developing a methodology of scientific curation which involved a multimodal strategy to curate, digitize, and ontologize biomedical findings and text.

It was about at the time of 2012 that other groups, mainly focused of drug development applications (for example at University of Indiana) recognized that new computational power of machine learning algorthims could be  useful in analyzing complex biological questions.  Please see our Synthetic Biology in Drug Discovery section of our Journal for more information on this. For instance, an early adopter of this strategy, a company called  Data2Discovery, one of the earliest AI for drug discovery startups, stated

We are able to improve drug discovery now as well as demonstrating new fast-cycle AI-driven processes that will have a revolutionary impact on drug discovery if fully implemented. We have had some dramatic successes, but we are just starting to discover the impact that data, knowledge graphs, AI and machine learning can together have on drug discovery.

We need all the expertise of academics, consortia, AI companies and pharma to make his happen, and it’s going to require some serious investment, and a big change of thinking. But the opportunity to get drug discovery out of the death spiral and framed for data-driven success is too important to pass up.

However the LPBI Group was cognizant of these changes occuring and pivoted to the developing natural language processing arena as well as ideas for the developing Blockchain technology.  This was more of a natural progression for the LPBI Group than a pivot (please read here).

This would be our Vision 2.0, to make biomedical text amenable for Natural Language Processing.   We utilized a few strategies in this regard, partnering with a company who was developing NLP for biomedical text analysis, and developing in house machine learning and NLP methods using the Wolfram language environment.  Our focus on structuring biomedical text (versus the highly structured genomics and omics data found in many omics related databanks) was prescient for the time.  As NLP and machine learning  efforts realized, biomedical text needs to have a structure much like genes, proteins and other molecular databases had been organized.  Therefore it was realized that structured data was imperative for efficient NLP analysis, a crux for the new GPT which was being developed (and in this mind still is a crux for current GPT and LLM models when it comes to biomedical text analysis).

Our strategy using our scientific curation methodology (as described below in links form our founder Dr. Aviva Lev-Ari, was proven to be highly efficient and amenable to NLP analysis, as a pilot with an NLP company noticed.  Most of the data they were using was unstructured and their first step involved annotation and structuring the text, as we had already performed for years.  This was critical as our text was able to pull out more concepts, relationships, in a faster time than NLP on sources such as PubMed available text.  We had also developed our own in house algorithms for NLP on our material, which is shown in some of our book offerrings and individual articles.

However with the advent of GPT it was thought all this was unnecessary.  However this idea that our strategy was outdated or irrelevent in the era of GPT was wholly  incorrect to the advocates of a sole GPT strategy to analyze biomedical text and data.  It is now understood that structure is needed as some of biomedical-centric GPT projects would find out, such as BioGPT.  We have many articles which attest to the lack of  accuracy and efficiency of these GPT architectures (seen here). These include failure rates in many areas of healthcare and biomedicine by sole reliance on GPT,

It was realized by many in the biomedical arena, especially those involved in NLP efforts, that there was much value in the semantic web 3.0 idea, and this was readily picked up by those spearheading effort to incorporate knowledge graphs with the new generative AI or GPT technology.  We have shown a clear example our scientific methodology of curation with ontology has better inference when combined with knowledge graphs and GPT than reliance on GPT alone

Multiple Lung Cancer Genomic Projects Suggest New Targets, Research Directions for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

at https://pharmaceuticalintelligence.com/2014/09/05/multiple-lung-cancer-genomic-projects-suggest-new-targets-research-directions-for-non-small-cell-lung-cancer/

As shown here in this article

This update was performed by the following methods:
A. GPT 5 Text analysis and Reasoning
B. Insertion of Knowledge Graph on topic Curation of Genomic Analysis from Non Small Cell Lung Cancer Studies  from Nodus Labs using InfraNodus software
C. Domain Knowledge Expert evaluation of the Update outcomes
This article has the following Structure:
Part A: Introduction to LLM, Knowledge Graph software InfraNodus, ChatGPT5 and Background Information on curated material for Test Case
Part B: InfraNodus Analysis of manual curation and Knowledge Graph Creation
Part C: Chat GPT 5 Analysis of Manually Curated Material
Part D: Curation entitled Multiple Lung Cancer Genomic Projects Suggest New Targets, Research Directions for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer originally published on 09/05/2014
Results of Article Update with GPT 5
1. GPT5 alone was not able to understand the goal of the article, namely to determine knowledge gaps in a particular research area involving 5 genomic studies on lung cancer patients
2. GPT5 alone was not able to group concepts or comonalities between biological pathways unless supplied with a manually curated list of KEGG pathways from a list of mutated genes.  However this precluded any effect that fusion proteins had on the analysis and so GPT5 would only concentrate on mutated genes commonly found in literature
3. GPT was not able to access some of the open Access databases like NCBI Gene Ontology database
Results of Article Update with KnowledgeGraph presentation to GPT 5
4. As the Knowledge Graph understood the importance of fusion proteins and transversions, the knowledgegraph augmented the GPT analysis and so enriched the known pathways as well as could correctly identify the less represented pathways in the knowledge graph
5.  This led to the identification of many novel signaling pathways not identified in the original analysis, and was able to perform this task with ease and speed

6. GPT with InfraNodus Analysis was able to propose pertinent questions for future research (the goal of the original curation) such as:

  • How does the interaction between [[EGFR]] mutations and sex-specific gene alterations, including [[RBM10]], influence treatment outcomes in lung adenocarcinoma?
  • How does the intersection of mutational patterns from smoking influence pathway activation in NSCLC, and can identifying these interactions improve targeted therapy development?
Novelty in comparison to Original article published on 09/05/2014
7. it appears that manual curation is necessary to assist in the building of relevant knowledge graphs in the biomedical fields to augment generative AI analysis
8. by itself, generative AI is not optimized for inference of higher concepts from biomedical text, and therefore, at this point, requires the input from human curators developing domain-specific knowledge graphs
9.  The combination of ChatGPT5 and Knowledge graphs of this manually curated biomedical text added a further layer of complexity of gaps of knowledge not seen in the original curations including the need to study noncanonical signaling pathways like WNT and Hedgehog in smoker versus nonsmoker cohorts of lung cancer patients

Authentic Relevance of LPBI Group’s Portfolio of IP as Proprietary Training Data Corpus for AI Initiatives at Big Pharma

On 11/14, 2025, Dr. Lev-Ari asked @Grok about AI Initiatives at a Big Pharma, i.e., Pfizer.

@Grok response is presented, below

Pfizer’s AI Initiatives Overview

Pfizer, a global pharmaceutical leader, has integrated artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) across its operations to accelerate drug discovery, enhance clinical trials, improve manufacturing, and drive patient-centric innovations. These efforts aim to reduce development timelines, boost efficiency, and address challenges like rare disease detection. As of late 2025, Pfizer’s AI strategy emphasizes internal expertise, cloud-based tools (primarily with AWS), and cross-industry collaborations, with a focus on multimodal data analysis and generative AI. Below is a breakdown of key initiatives, drawn from recent developments.

1. Pfizer AI Cloud Transformation (PACT) Program Launched in 2021 with AWS, PACT is a prototyping accelerator for AI/ML applications in lab, clinical manufacturing, and supply chain efforts. It has pursued 14 projects, with five now in production. Key outcomes include:

  • Generative AI tools that save scientists up to 16,000 hours annually in literature searches and data analysis.
  • 55% reduction in infrastructure costs through cloud optimization.
  • Exploration of virtual/augmented reality for training, with rapid prototyping to test feasibility. This program fosters “fail-fast” innovation, enabling quick iteration on ideas like AI-driven predictive modeling.

2. Drug Discovery and Development Acceleration Pfizer uses AI, supercomputing, and ML to streamline R&D, cutting years off traditional timelines (e.g., from 8–10 years to months for certain candidates).

  • COVID-19 Initiatives: AI optimized molecular searches for PAXLOVID (oral antiviral), enabling intravenous-to-oral pivots. During vaccine development, the Safety Data Quality (SDQ) tool—a custom AI for clinical trial data management—saved a full month of analysis via the Breakthrough Change Accelerator sandbox.
  • Precision Medicine and Subpopulation Identification: Advanced ML (classical and deep learning) analyzes molecular datasets from trials to predict patient responses, informing trial design, first-in-human studies, and oncology/inflammatory disease targeting. This has doubled clinical success rates to ~20% (vs. industry 7–10%).
  • ML Research Hub: Pfizer’s Cambridge, MA-based Biomedical Data Science group builds internal talent for AI in genome sciences, predicting disease outcomes and treatment efficacy using techniques from tech giants like Google.

3. Clinical Trials and Regulatory Efficiency AI automates content creation across the drug lifecycle, from lab data to regulatory docs and patient booklets, ensuring quality and speed.

  • Predictive Regulatory Tools: ML models forecast regulator queries, proactively addressing safety concerns to build trust and shorten approvals.
  • Decentralized Trials: The “Clinical Trial Anywhere” model uses AI to integrate remote data (e.g., home health visits), improving recruitment/retention and generating real-world evidence.
  • Inventory and Supply Chain: AI predicts vaccine storage issues, pioneered during COVID distribution.

4. Disease Detection and Diagnostics

  • ATTR-CM Initiative: Through the ASPIRE collaboration (with Amyloidosis Research Consortium), AI analyzes EHRs, ECGs, and echocardiograms to detect transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy earlier, targeting underdiagnosed heart failure cases.
  • Rare Diseases: ML models identify symptoms in large datasets, mapping the immune system for better predictions.

5. Generative AI and Operational Tools

  • Charlie Platform: Rolled out in 2024 for marketing, this gen AI tool (named after co-founder Charles Pfizer) generates compliant content like emails, presentations, and medical article drafts. Trained on approved product data, it streamlines physician targeting and customer insights.
  • Scientific Data Cloud: AWS-powered centralization of data/ML capabilities, enabling faster research and treating 1.3 billion patients in 2022. It supports gen AI via Amazon SageMaker/Bedrock for manufacturing efficiency.
  • Global Health Grants: Through the Pfizer Foundation’s AI Learning Lab, funding supports AI for equitable healthcare access, e.g., biometric tools for community care.

6. Partnerships and Education

  • Collaborations: With AWS for cloud AI; IMI Big Picture for a 3M-sample disease database; IIT Madras for the 2025 AIPM Symposium on AI in pharma (focusing on drug discovery and precision medicine).
  • Talent and Events: Hosting webinars on AI in manufacturing (e.g., predictive maintenance, regulatory submissions) and engaging leaders like Dr. Subha Madhavan on AI for biomedical data integration.
  • Strategic Focus: $500M R&D reinvestment by 2026 targets AI for productivity, part of $7.7B cost savings. Emphasis on ethical AI, diverse datasets, and competing with global biotech advances (e.g., China’s AI in CRISPR).

Pfizer’s approach balances operational efficiency with transformative R&D, positioning AI as a core enabler rather than a standalone focus. Ongoing investments, like cloud migrations saving $47M annually and reducing CO2 emissions, underscore sustainability. For the latest, monitor Pfizer’s investor updates or events like AWS re:Invent.

AI-Driven Cost Savings in Big Pharma   

@Grok responded:

AI-Driven Cost Savings in Big PharmaArtificial intelligence (AI) applications across the pharmaceutical value chain—particularly in drug discovery, clinical trials, and operations—have the potential to generate substantial savings for major pharmaceutical companies (often referred to as “Big Pharma”). Based on recent industry reports and analyses from 2024-2025, these savings vary by application but could collectively reach tens of billions annually by the late 2020s. Projections indicate AI could add up to 11% in value relative to revenue for biopharma firms over the next five years through productivity gains and cost reductions. Below, I break down the estimated savings levels by key areas, drawing from credible sources like McKinsey, Deloitte, IQVIA, and others.

  1. Clinical Trials

  • Annual Industry-Wide Savings: By 2030, AI integration into 60-70% of clinical trials could save the pharmaceutical industry $20-30 billion per year through faster timelines, better patient matching, and reduced administrative costs.
  • Per-Trial Cost Reduction: AI can cut trial costs by up to 70% and shorten durations by 80%, enabling quicker regulatory submissions (40% faster) with 50% improved cost efficiency. For example, AstraZeneca reported up to 25% shorter trial durations in cancer drug studies using AI for dose optimization and biomarker identification.
  • Specific Efficiency Gains: Feasibility surveys can see 90% time reductions using AI/ML tools.
  1. Drug Discovery and Development

  • R&D Cost Drop: AI could reduce drug discovery costs by up to 40%, with overall development timelines shrinking from 5 years to 12-18 months (an 80% cut in some cases). From discovery to preclinical candidate stage, timelines can decrease by up to 50%.
  • Total Clinical Development Savings: Projected at $25 billion across the sector, driven by AI-accelerated pipelines.
  1. Operations and Broader Impacts

  • Value Relative to Revenue: Biopharma AI investments may yield up to 11% additional value (e.g., via cost efficiencies and revenue growth) over five years. For related medtech segments, savings could hit 12% of total revenue within 2-3 years.
  • Operating Profits Boost: By 2030, AI could add $254 billion in annual operating profits industry-wide through productivity jumps (e.g., 50-100% in quality control) and lead time reductions (60-70%).
  • Time-to-Market: Up to 10% faster overall, with production KPIs improving revenue by 25%.

These estimates assume scaled adoption, with global AI spending in pharma rising from ~$3 billion in 2025 to $22-25 billion by 2027-2030. Challenges like high initial costs and data infrastructure may temper short-term gains, but early adopters (e.g., Pfizer, Novartis) are already seeing ROI. For context, the global pharma market is projected at $1.6 trillion by 2025, so even modest percentages translate to billions in savings.

Summary of the Article:
“Authentic Relevance of LPBI Group’s Portfolio of IP as Proprietary Training Data Corpus for AI Initiatives at Big Pharma”
This November 15, 2025, article on PharmaceuticalIntelligence.com (curated by LPBI Group) makes a compelling case for leveraging LPBI’s decade-plus of expert-curated digital IP as a high-fidelity, rights-clean training corpus to supercharge AI-driven innovation in Big Pharma. It contrasts the limitations of generic LLMs (like GPT) with the need for domain-specific, ontologized biomedical data, positioning LPBI’s assets as a “defensible moat” for accelerating R&D in drug discovery, precision medicine, and beyond. The piece blends market analysis of pharma giants with a deep dive into LPBI’s portfolio, emphasizing its multimodal, metadata-rich structure for NLP, knowledge graphs, and fine-tuning SLMs/LLMs.IntroductionThe thesis: In an era where AI investments in pharma (e.g., Eli Lilly’s aggressive funding) focus on slashing R&D timelines by 60%+ in target discovery and 25% in drug design, LPBI’s proprietary corpus—built since 2012 via human curation, digitization, and ontology mapping—offers unmatched authenticity over web-scraped data. It addresses GPT’s biomedical shortcomings (e.g., failing to infer fusion proteins or noncanonical pathways without curated inputs) and highlights LPBI’s foresight in text analysis for generative AI augmentation. A key quote from Data2Discovery: “We are able to improve drug discovery now as well as demonstrating new fast-cycle AI-driven processes that will have a revolutionary impact on drug discovery if fully implemented.”Portfolio OverviewLPBI’s ~9 GB, debt-free, multimodal corpus is privately held, expert-curated (e.g., by Prof. Marcus W. Feldman and Dr. Stephen J. Williams), and ingest-ready for AI pre-training/evaluations. It spans five key asset classes, each with metadata exports, timestamps, crosslinks, and centralized rights for model training:

 

Asset Class
Description & Size
Unique Value Proposition
I: Scientific Articles
6,250+ articles on PharmaceuticalIntelligence.com (~2.5M views); covers genomics, oncology, immunology, etc.
Live ontology, author/role labels, view histories; enables temporal NLP for trend analysis.
II: e-Books
48 bilingual (English/Spanish) volumes in 5 BioMed e-Series (e.g., Series A: Cardiovascular, 6 vols., $515 total; Series E: Patient-Centered, 4 vols., $274); 151,000+ page downloads; 2,728 articles.
Peer-reviewed, senior-editor TOCs; pay-per-view model proves demand; ideal for entity-relationship extraction.
III: e-Proceedings
100+ from biotech/genomics conferences (2013–2025); +50 tweet collections as speaker quotes with affiliations.
Real-time event curation; captures emerging insights for knowledge graph augmentation.
V: Biological Images
7,500+ images in Digital Art Media Gallery; embedded as prior art in texts.

Transcripts + NLP WordClouds; adds auditory/verbal depth for voice-enabled AI copilots.

The portfolio’s “living ontology” allows seamless integration into tools like InfraNodus for concept mapping.AI Training RelevanceUnlike PubMed’s unstructured dumps, LPBI’s assets are pre-annotated for concept extraction (e.g., gene-disease-drug dyads), reducing hallucinations and bias in LLMs. A case study integrates curation with ChatGPT-5: Manual ontology + knowledge graphs uncovered novel WNT/Hedgehog interactions in lung cancer, generating research questions like: “How does the interaction between [[EGFR]] mutations and sex-specific gene alterations, including [[RBM10]], influence treatment outcomes in lung adenocarcinoma?” This hybrid approach outperforms solo GPT, proving the corpus’s role in trustworthy biomedical inference.Applications

  • Drug Discovery: ML prompts on dyads to mimic Pfizer’s AI (e.g., reducing discovery from years to months); supports biologics/cell therapies.
  • Precision Medicine: 547 articles for patient subtyping; 3,615 disease-focused pieces for predictive modeling.
  • Diagnostics & Rare Diseases: 560 rare disease articles + 30 on ATTR-CM for early detection (e.g., via Pfizer’s ASPIRE AI).
  • Clinical/Regulatory: Streamlines trials, evidence synthesis, and content generation (e.g., via Pfizer’s “Charlie” copilot, saving hours on lit reviews).
  • Generative Tools: Fine-tune for compliant, domain-aware outputs in medical affairs/safety.

Challenges & Solutions

  • Data Quality/Bias: Unstructured text leads to GPT errors; solved by expert curation + ontology for accurate, diverse inputs.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Rights fragmentation; addressed via LPBI’s centralized assignment for NDA-secure licensing.
  • Scalability: Generic data overload; LPBI’s focused, high-signal corpus enables fast-cycle AI without noise.

Recommendations

Urge Big Pharma (e.g., Pfizer, Merck—table highlights Merck’s $64.2B revenue, Keytruda focus) to acquire the full portfolio for end-to-end knowledge bases, or license under NDA for SLM/LLM training (English/Spanish).
  • Emphasizes “buy the moat” for competitive edge in 2025’s 6–9% sector growth (obesity/oncology hotspots).
Contact: avivalev-ari@alum.berkeley.edu.
Conclusion
LPBI’s corpus isn’t just data—it’s a “scientific revolution enabler,” blending human creativity with AI for transformative pharma impact. Validated on extraction tasks, it’s primed for partnerships, outshining combinatorial predictions with authentic, curated depth. This article builds on prior LPBI mappings (e.g., our podcast TOC summary), reinforcing the portfolio’s strategic fit for AI.

  • globally 60 precision initiatives but there really are because many in small countries
  • three out of five individuals in India die of cancer
  • precision medicine is a must and a hub and spoke model is needed in these places; Italy does this hub and spoke; spokes you enable the small places and bring them into the network so they know how and have access to precision medicine
  • in low income countries the challenge starts with biopsy: then diagnosis and biomarker is issue; then treatment decision a problem as they may not have access to molecular tumor boards
  • prevention is always a difficult task in LMICs (low income)
  • you have ten times more patients in India than in US (triage can be insurmountable)
  • ICGA Foundation: Indian Cancer Genome Atlas
  • in India mutational frequencies vary with geographical borders like EGFR mutations or KRAS mutations
  • genomic landscape of ovarian cancer in India totally different than in TCGA data
  • even different pathways are altered in ovarian cancer seen in North America than in India
  • MAY mean that biomarker panels need to be adjusted based on countries used in
  • the molecular data has to be curated for the India cases to be submitted to a tumor board
  • twenty diagnostic tests in market like TruCheck for Indian market; uses liquid biopsy
  • they are also tailoring diagnostic and treatment for India getting FDA fast track approvals

Co-targeting KIT/PDGRFA and Genomic Integrity in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors

Razelle Kurzrock, MD

Lori Rink, PhD, Associate ProfessorFox Chase Cancer Center

  • GIST are most common nesychymal tumor in GI tract
  • used to be misdiagnosed; was considered a leimyosarcoma
  • very asymptomatic tumors and not good prognosis
  • very refractory to genotoxic therapies
  • RTK KIT/PDGFRA gain of function mutations
  • Gleevec imatinib for unresectable GIST however vast majority of even responders become resistant to therapy and cancer returns
  • there is a mutation map for hotspot mutations and sensitivity for gleevec
  • however resistance emerged to ripretinib; in ATP binding pocket
  • over treatment get a polyclonal resistance
  • performed a kinome analysis; Wee1 looked like a potential target
  • mouse studies (80 day) showed good efficacy
  • avapiritinib ahs some neurotox and used in PDGFRA mut GIST model which is resistant to imitinib
  • but if use Wee1 inhibitor with TKI can lower dose of avapiritinib
  • cotargeting KIT/PDGFRA and WEE1 increases replicative stress
  • they are using PDX models to test these combinations
  • combination creates genomic instability

Notes from Live Tumor Board from Live Tweets

Tumor board Live… Molecular profiling great for identifying synthetic lethal combinations work very well… Many oncologist not accepting recommendations of molec tumor board

Tumor board Live . Oncologists don’t always accept tumor board recommendations based on molecular profiling… Dr Baptiste at first felt constrained to use single agent but WINTER combo trial with molec profiling better

Tumor board Live… Oncologist may give pushback when molecular therapeutic targets identified.. like when methylomics give a result and tumor board suggest temazolamide

  • Princess Margaret CC went to Merck got pembrolizumab from them but built a team platform of clinicians and scientists to work on INSPIRE trial
  • $11 million of grants, 13 major papers, great team science
  • did ctDNA from liquid biopsy and also looked at methylation patterns in cfDNA
  • looked at IFN stimulation and outcome to pembrolizumab
  • retro transposable elements found in INSPIRE program, maybe a predictor of immune sensitivity
  • they were able to correlate some of their findings with spatial omics
  • using spatial data they could look at hot versus cold head and neck cancer
  •  factors for response to immunotherapy: TMB, t cell infiltrate,  PDL1 etc
  • using AI with IHC slides as well as NGS data sets
  • as clinical trials become multiomics and AI with multiomics platforms data sharing will be critical for success

The Microbiome and Its Role in Cancer Development and Treatment Response

Razelle Kurzrock, MD

Sabine Hazan, MD, CEO, Ventura Clinical Trials; CEO, Progenabiome

  • microbiome research at the infancy so we don’t know much when comes to oncology
  • we need to compare microbiome between persons using NGS and other omics
  • we all have different microbiome even though microbiome ‘healthy’
  • lots of factors affect microbiome including surgery
  • families are similar in their microbiome but when looking at Alzheimers there are differences
  • first lab to find whole COVID in the stools
  • virus was different in different people, difference spike proteins. Virus mutates from lung to stool (gut)
  • in intrafamily patients had different microbiome upon COVID infection
  • bifodobacteria was found as a major part of microbiome altered in COVID but also lots of other diseases
  • lots of examples of host microbial symbiosis
  • they had an instance with throat tumor treated with microbiome and tumor receded without chemo
  • in a glioblastoma microbiome adjustment helped but changed positive response to immunotherapy

From Targets to Trials:
Translating Discovery into Impact

1:50-2:10

Beyond Checkpoint Inhibitors: Targeted Immunotherapeutic Approaches for the Management of Solid Tumors

Andrea Ferreira-Gonzalez
  • we need to turn these immuno-cold tumors into immuno ‘hot’ tumors so immunotherapy will be effective and recognize them
  • however each immunotherapies have their own toxicities
  • immunocheck points inhibitors: 50% of patients get very rough adverse events and have to stop therapy and give immunosuppressives
  • 60 yo female with urothelial carcinoma with chemo induced rash given pembrolizumab but got worse rash… had Steven Johnson Syndrome… fatal outcome from one cycle of PD-L1 inhibitor
  • so now we are giving these immune checkpoints earlier before even surgery… the overall survival better but there are certain personalized toxicities
  • up to 35% patients with cancer have chronic immuno related adverse events and dose limiting toxicities
  • 50% have low grade multiple toxicities (and they treat these AEs with steroids)
  • we have no biomarkers for these PD/PDL1 inhibitor adverse events

 

2:10-2:30

Implementing Molecular Profiling in Early Phase Clinical Trials: Precision from Bench to Bedside

Andrea Ferreira-Gonzalez
  • power of biomarkers: BRCA2 null women with ovarian cancer success with olaparib even though at time was not approved except the biomarker known
  • every week they discuss with internal tumor board and consult with Foundation Medicine; however a mutational panel is great but need to understand the underlying effect on tumor biology
  • there are a handful of tumor agnostic targeted agents: based on biomarkers
  • she thinks digital twins will be helpful in determining cohort selection for clinical trails
  • she would like multiomics to be performed on every patient but how would this be done, especially in the ecosystem of the USA
  • from attendee question to speaker panel (from Indai): they have been running tmolecular boards but problem is when new targets or fusion proteins become known without a priori knowledge of them and no combination know what to do?

Non- CME Session: Venture Philanthropy

Andrea Ferreira-Gonzalez

Eric Heil, MBAManaging PartnerMedical Excellence Capital

  • started a venture fund and then a 501(c) to give small grants
  • in venture philanthropy it is not traditional grant writing but more of a personal relationship; he says find other companies they have backed and ask them
  • all about networking
  • looked at 1400 deals but only invested in 13
  • back years ago his company biotech got ten million after 2009 from TAP but now it seems smaller bridge money
John Lehr, President & CEO, Parkinson's Foundation

John LehrPresident & CEOParkinson’s Foundation

  • runs venture philanthropy which is more like a mix of venture fund and granting agency
  • most run a for profit venture but mix model with 501c to fund small grants
Dr. Blaine Robinson

Dr. Blaine Robinson, PhDVice President of the Therapy Acceleration Program (TAP)Blood Cancer United

  • runs Blood Cancer United that offers grants for blood based research
  • they run three pillars: venture biotech funding, clinical trial funding, and academic research but most they take equity in biotechs
  • so venture philanthropy is more of equity investing and using those funds to fund younger companies like bridge between first round and series C
  • Blood Cancer United looking for million and above investment “first in class’; was early with Kite and UPenn (where are they now… are they still with them?)

3:20-4:10

eNSCLC Testing

Andrea Ferreira-Gonzalez
  • lung cancer has seemed to be ahead with respect to biomarkers and precision therapies
  • at least with NCCN guidelines they are up to 14 therapeutic biomarkers not diagnostic biomarkers so very ahead on the clinical decision making on actionable mutations for lung cancer
  • so most of the testing is genomic mutational spectrum for oncogenic drivers
  • there are three protein based biomarkers: Met, PDL1,
  • FISH is still used for some fusions
  • NGS is more sensitive test but takes 2-4 weeks
  • the number of  detected EGFR variants are increasing so it is affecting the drug specificity
  • recently NRG1 fusions have been approved as a heregulin HER3 biomarker;
  • 15% which were detected as negative for fusions the patients actually responded because fusions were hard to detect; many false positives
  • 76% did not meet MET eligbility but only 13% were high enough for MET marker but was enough for FDA approval
  • some drugs beneficial for mutated version and some good for over expressed like MET or HER2 but where the mutation or exon skipping is important for therapy choice
  • we need better biobanking because we need more tissue; we loose more tissue during sectioning and not splitting blocks into two (one for diagnostic one for therapeutic)
  • liquid biopsy will find some mutations but other ones not very sensitivity in liquid biopsy like MET mutations (mutations may be assay specific)
  • some muts in bone marrow may just be in aging progenitor cells and sometimes in oncogene like BRAF but not cancer but dlonal homatopoesis (increased risk for myeloproliferative diseases but not solid tumors like melanoma)
  • clonal homatopoesis actually common so watch out when just relying on liquid biopsy

Bridging the Gender Gap in Healthcare: Unlocking Biopharma’s Potential in Women’s Health

Curator: Dr. Sudipta Saha, Ph.D.

Nearly half of the global population—and 80 percent of patients in therapeutic areas such as immunology—are women. Yet, treatments are frequently developed without tailored insights for female patients, often ignoring critical biological differences such as hormonal impacts, genetic factors, and cellular sex. Historically, women’s health has been narrowly defined through the lens of reproductive organs, while for non-reproductive conditions, women were treated as “small men.” This lack of focus on sex-specific biology has contributed to significant gaps in healthcare.

A recent analysis found that women spend 25 percent more of their lives in poor health compared with men due to the absence of sex-based treatments. Addressing this disparity could not only improve women’s quality of life but also unlock over $1 trillion in annual global GDP by 2040.

Four key factors contribute to the women’s health gap: limited understanding of sex-based biological differences, healthcare systems designed around male physiology, incomplete data that underestimates women’s disease burden, and chronic underfunding of female-focused research. For instance, despite women representing 78 percent of U.S. rheumatoid arthritis patients, only 7 percent of related NIH funding in 2019 targeted female-specific studies.

However, change is happening. Companies have demonstrated how targeted R&D can drive better outcomes for women. These therapies achieved expanded FDA approvals after clinical trials revealed their unique benefits for female patients. Similarly, addressing sex-based treatment gaps in asthma, atrial fibrillation, and tuberculosis could prevent millions of disability-adjusted life years.

By closing the women’s health gap, biopharma companies can drive innovation, improve therapeutic outcomes, and build high-growth markets while addressing long-standing inequities. This untapped opportunity holds the potential to transform global health outcomes for women and create a more equitable future.

Real Time Coverage Morning Session on Precision Oncology: Advancing Precision Medicine Annual Conference, Philadelphia PA November 2 2024

Reporter: Stephen J. Williams, Ph.D.

9:20-9:50

How Can We Close the Clinical Practice Gaps in Precision Medicine?

Susanne Munksted, Diaceutics

Studies are showing that genetic tests are being ordered at a sufficient rate however it appears there are problems in interpretation and developing treatment plans based on omics testing results

 

  • 30 % of patients in past and now currently half of all patients are not being given the proper treatment based on genomic testing results (ASCO)
  • E.g. only 1.5% with NTRK fusions received a NTRK based therapy (this was > 4000 patients receiving wrong therapy)
  • A lung oncologist may only see one patient with NTRK fusion in three years

 

Precision Medicine Practice Gaps

48% of oncologist surveyed  agreed pathologist needs to be more informed and relevant in the decision making process with regard to tests needing to be ordered

95% said need to flip cost issues ; what does it cost not to get a test … i.e. what is the cost of the wrong therapy

We need a new commercialization model for therapeutic development for this new era of “n of one” patient

9:50-10:15

Implementation of a CLIA-based Reverse Phase Protein Array Assay for Precision Oncology Applications: Proteomics and Phosphoproteomics at the Bedside (CME Eligible)

Emanuel Petricoin, George Mason University

There are some tumor markers approved by FDA that cant just be measured by NGS and are correlated with a pathologic complete response

 

  • Many point mutations will have no actionable drug
  • Many alterations are post-genomic meaning there is a post translational component to many prognostic biomarkers
  • Prevalence of point mutation with no actionable mutation is a limit of NGS
  • It is important to look at phospho protein spectrum as a potential biomarker

 

Reverse phase protein proteomic analysis

  • Made into CLIA based array
  • They trained centers around the US on the technology and analysis
  • Basing proteomics or protein markers by traditional IHC requires much antibody validation so if the mass spectrometry field can catch up it would be very powerful
  • With multiple MRM.MS there is too low abundance of phosphoproteins to allow for good detection

 

They  conducted the I-SPY2 trial for breast cancer and determining if phosphoproteins could be a good biomarker panel

  • They found they could predict a HER2 response better than NGS
  • There were patients who were predicted HER2 negative that actually had an activated HER2 signaling pathway by proteomics so NGS must have had a series of false negatives
  • HER2 co phosphorylation predicts pathologic complete response and predicts therapy by herceptin
  • They found patients classified as HER2 negative by FISH were HER2 positive by proteomics and had HER2 activation

A large clinical trial has shown that pembrolizumab (Keytruda), an immunotherapy drug, nearly doubles the cancer-free survival time for patients with high-risk, muscle-invasive bladder cancer following surgery. The study, published on September 15, 2024, in The New England Journal of Medicine, was led by NIH researchers and demonstrated that pembrolizumab outperforms traditional observation methods post-surgery. Patients receiving pembrolizumab had a median cancer-free survival of 29.6 months, compared to 14.2 months for the observation group.

The trial enrolled 702 participants, some of whom had previously undergone cisplatin-based chemotherapy (neoadjuvant therapy). Pembrolizumab was administered every three weeks for a year. The drug was well tolerated, with common side effects including fatigue, itching, diarrhea, and thyroid issues.

Interestingly, the benefit of pembrolizumab was seen regardless of the tumor’s PD-L1 status.

  • Patients with PD-L1-positive tumors had a median cancer-free survival of 36.9 months.
  • Patients with PD-L1-negative tumors experienced 17.3 months cancer-free.

These results suggest that PD-L1 status should not be the sole factor in selecting patients for this therapy.

While overall survival rates were similar between the pembrolizumab and observation groups, many patients in the observation group began taking nivolumab once it was approved, complicating survival comparisons. Researchers are continuing to explore other treatment combinations and biomarkers to better personalize adjuvant therapy for bladder cancer patients.

Armored CD7-CAR T Cells: A Fratricide-Resistant Solution for T-ALL Therapy

Reporter and Curator: Dr. Sudipta Saha, Ph.D.

This research reported in Nature Medicine addresses the challenge of treating T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) with CAR T-cell therapy, particularly focusing on CD7, a surface marker highly expressed on T-ALL cells. The authors develop a novel CAR T-cell therapy that targets CD7, but with a crucial innovation which is fratricide resistance.

Fratricide, a phenomenon where CAR T cells kill each other (killing sister cells) due to shared CD7 expression, has been a significant problem in using CD7-directed therapies. To overcome this, the researchers made CD7-negative CAR T cells (CD7-CAR T cells) by knocking out CD7 from the CAR T cells themselves, preventing them from attacking one another.

Their preclinical results show that these CD7-CAR T cells exhibit strong anti-leukemic activity in T-ALL models, both in vitro and in vivo.

  • The fratricide-resistant T cells not only maintain their potency but also display enhanced proliferation and persistence, crucial for sustained therapeutic effects. Additionally,
  • the study highlights the feasibility and safety of this approach by demonstrating no adverse off-target effects or side effects, making it a potentially promising treatment for T-ALL patients who have limited options.

The research presents a significant advancement in CAR T-cell therapy by addressing the challenge of fratricide, offering a new, effective, and safe therapeutic option for T-ALL patients. The development of fratricide-resistant CD7-CAR T cells could lead to more successful outcomes in clinical applications, revolutionizing the treatment for T-ALL patients.

Clarivate Plc is a British-American publicly traded analytics company that operates a collection of subscription-based services, in the areas of bibliometrics and scientometricsbusiness / market intelligence, and competitive profiling for pharmacy and biotechpatents, and regulatory compliancetrademark protection, and domain and brand protection. In the academy and the scientific community, Clarivate is known for being the company that calculates the impact factor,[4] using data from its Web of Science product family, that also includes services/applications such as PublonsEndNoteEndNote Click, and ScholarOne. Its other product families are Cortellis, DRG, CPA Global, Derwent, MarkMonitor, CompuMark, and Darts-ip, [3] and also the various ProQuest products and services.

Clarivate was formed in 2016, following the acquisition of Thomson Reuters‘ Intellectual Property and Science business by Onex Corporation and Baring Private Equity Asia. Clarivate has acquired various companies since then, including, notably, ProQuest in 2021.

Further information: Thomson Scientific

Clarivate (formerly CPA Global) was formerly the Intellectual Property and Science division of Thomson Reuters. Before 2008, it was known as Thomson Scientific. In 2016, Thomson Reuters struck a $3.55 billion deal in which they spun it off as an independent company, and sold it to private-equity firms Onex Corporation and Baring Private Equity Asia.

In May 2019, Clarivate merged with the Churchill Capital Corp SPAC to obtain a public listing on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) It currently trades with symbol NYSE:CLVT.
