19. Clinical decision support software disclaimer

This report was generated by Genomate®, a clinical decision-support AI-based software system for precision oncology. The clinical utility of Genomate® was assessed by analyzing the clinical data of patients treated in the SHIVA01 targeted therapy basket trial. For more details, see Petak I et al. NPJ Precis Oncol. 2021 Jun 23;5(1):59.

Through its complex algorithms, Genomate® considers the full complexity of the molecular profile, including the interaction between co-occurring genetic alterations. Genomate® aggregates, on average 500-1000 pieces of evidence per report, using a series of complex standardized algorithms to prioritize driver genetic alterations, targets, and molecularly targeted agents associated with the individual molecular profile of the patient’s tumor, rendering an automatically calculated score, the Genomate Drug Score (GDS). The GDS of a particular molecularly targeted agent is influenced by the aggregated scores of drivers and targets a drug is associated with, as well as the scores of the associations between the treatment and these drivers and targets. The GDS of treatments may change if used in combinations, due to possible synergism at a molecular level. The 2024 version of the system uses evidence-based 70,000+ driver-target-compound interactions in its computational model.

This report can be used and clinically interpreted only by physicians or other qualified healthcare professionals. It provides information about the GDS scores of drivers, targets, and treatment options associated with the tumor type and molecular profile provided as input for this analysis. The output scores depend on the type of molecular diagnostic assay used for the analysis. This report is not medical advice and is not intended to be relied upon as the basis for any prevention, diagnosis, treatment, or other clinical decision-making. Healthcare professionals may consider or disregard the information to choose between treatment options provided by this report. Healthcare professionals are encouraged to independently review the basis for the information contained in this report and must use their own independent judgment in making any clinical decision regarding an individual patient. The drugs indicated in this report may or may not be registered and/or reimbursed in the specific tumor type in the country in which this report is used. The scores indicated in this report do not guarantee efficacy or lack of efficacy of any treatment. Genomate Health Inc. does not take responsibility for the content or accuracy of this report or any referenced pieces of evidence nor for any decision made by any healthcare professional based on the information contained herein.

Genomate® is a clinical decision support software, as described in Section 520(o) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA). None of the statements contained herein have been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Genomate® is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, prevent, or mitigate any condition and is not a “device” as such term is defined in Section 201(h) of the FDCA.
