Presentations showcase AI-powered multimodal analytics that unblind tumor biology and accelerate drug development
BostonGene, developer of the leading AI foundational model for cancer and immune system, announced today the acceptance of four abstracts at the ESMO Congress 2025. This premier global oncology meeting brings together clinicians, researchers, patient advocates and industry experts to advance cancer science and care. The Congress showcases the latest breakthroughs in translational research and clinical practice, featuring practice-changing data across multiple tumor types and serves as a vital platform for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors. The ESMO Congress 2025 will take place October 17-21 in Berlin, Germany.
BostonGene session details are as follows:
Title: Transcriptomic Tumor Microenvironment Subtypes in Cervical Cancer Reveal Prognostic and Therapeutic Opportunities
FPN: 1167P
Date and time: October 18 12:00-12:45 CEST
Presenter: Andrey Kravets, Senior Bioinformatician, BostonGene
Leveraging its proprietary multimodal platform, BostonGene developed a tumor microenvironment-based classification system to identify targetable features of cervical cancers. RNA-seq and proteomics data from open-source datasets were evaluated to determine HPV gene expression, associated protein and signaling pathway activity, and correlations with patient survival. This analysis supports the use of precision therapy strategies to improve patient outcomes.
Title: Integrated analysis of KRAS mutations and MTAP loss in pancreatic cancer reveals potential for combined blockade of KRAS and PRMT5
FPN: 2248P
Date and time: October 19 12:00-12:45 CEST
Presenter: David Hong, MD, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center
BostonGene performed genomic and transcriptomic profiling of 437 public and 119 internal pancreatic adenocarcinoma samples using its automated pipelines, identifying frequently co-occurring MTAP mutations in KRAS-mutated tumors. These findings support the strategy of combining PRMT5 and RAS inhibitors in patients harboring both KRAS mutations and MTAP loss. The correlation of MTAP deletion and fibrotic tumor microenvironment also supports treatment strategies that combine PRMT5 inhibitors with immune checkpoint blockade.
Research conducted in collaboration with MD Anderson Cancer Center
Title: ERK/MAPK, RTK, ABL, and WNT Signaling Pathways as Potential Therapeutic Targets in Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma
FPN: 2713P
Date and time: October 20 |12:00-12:45 CEST
Presenter: Neal S. Chawla, Associate Director of Clinical Research, Sarcoma Oncology Center
Using RNA-seq data of over 1,000 sarcoma samples and publicly accessible drug response data, BostonGene applied its proprietary analytics platform to derive a gene signature to describe features of undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS). Through this analysis, BostonGene identified that samples with UPS-like features, while associated with worse survival outcomes, also exhibited heightened sensitivity to compounds targeting RTK/RAS/RAF/MEK, ABL, and WNT pathways, highlighting new therapeutic avenues for these aggressive tumors.
Research conducted in collaboration with the Sarcoma Oncology Center
Title: Clinical Benefit Analysis of DNG64-CAR-V Gene Therapy Predicts Successful Efficacy Endpoints for a Planned Phase 2 Basket Study for CCNG1 Expressing Tumors
FPN: 2702P
Date and time: October 20 12:00-12:45 CEST
Presenter: Anmol Dia Agarwal, BA, Sarcoma Oncology Center
BostonGene led the clinical testing and data analysis for a study examining the efficacy and safety of DNG64-CAR-V, an RNA vector consisting of a SIG targeting peptide and encoding a CCNG1 inhibitor gene, for treating patients with advanced sarcoma, pancreatic cancer and breast cancer. Using BostonGene's proprietary multimodal analytics pipeline, it was determined that all patient groups qualified for a Phase 2 basket study to further examine the efficacy and safety of combination regimens of DNG64-CAR-V
