Genialis™ Supermodel

A foundation model of cancer biology

Trained on hundreds of thousands of RNA sequencing samples, this large molecular model (LMM) defines a comprehensive landscape of cancer biology, learned from preclinical, single-cell, and globally diverse patient records. The LMM maps each new patient sample based on its biological state, revealing underlying drivers and vulnerabilities.

The Genialis Supermodel delivers therapeutic intelligence by interpreting the molecular biology of tumor samples. The output are “biomodule” scores, algorithmic representations of diverse biological phenomena, states, and processes.

Technically, the Supermodel is a compendium of phenotypic embeddings that serve as input features for machine-learning modelling of predictors. Practically, it enables your translational and clinical teams to interrogate questions about response, mechanism, durability, indication, line of therapy… virtually any prediction task.

Biomodule scores can be used to train predictors that:

  • Distinguish responders from non-responders

  • Generate hypotheses about mechanisms of response and resistance

  • Suggest likely combination approaches, and

  • Uncover novel targets for cancer therapy

Genialis Supermodel uses RNA data to uncover cancer biology, quickly configuring biomarkers for drug targets.

Accessing the Genialis Supermodel

The Supermodel can be accessed on our cloud or deployed on yours, plugged into your existing data and AI ecosystem. We’ve built an industrial-grade software stack that complements existing solutions, while rich APIs allow the Supermodel to autonomously contribute to established research workflows. 

In addition, Genialis provides AI-enabled expert services to assist with technology integration, data processing, and AI design, modeling, and interpretation.

Accurate, informative, and scalable

A typical workflow has four main phases:

  • Primary analysis analyzes raw RNA sequencing data and produces gene expression profiles

  • Data harmonization includes data quality assurance, data pre-processing, and batch effect detection and mitigation, as well as integration with your proprietary and third-party licensed data

  • Biomodule scores are transcriptomic embeddings, computed with the Genialis Supermodel

  • AI predictions are made by applying existing predictors (AI models) or training new ones on biomodule scores

Genialis Supermodel workflow from Primary analysis, Data harmonization to Biomodule scores and AI predictions

Four key software components support this workflow:

  • Genialis Expressions is a robust and scalable cloud software that captures analysis metadata and handles primary processing of sequencing data via a suite of validated pipelines

  • Genialis Precision Medicine SDK prepares data for machine learning using data normalization, a system of preprocessors, and a framework for batch effect detection and removal

  • Genialis Supermodel transforms harmonized sequencing data into a low-dimensional biological space using biomodules

  • Predictors are AI models developed to predict response, prognosis, or other clinically relevant insights; these are trained by the Supermodel licensees or contracted and licensed directly from Genialis

Each of the software components comes with an API allowing bundled or independent deployment and integration of these components within existing architectures.
