Philips Pathway Activity Profiling OncoSignal
A number of cell signal transduction pathways are known to play a role in the development of cancer. OncoSignal helps to gain insight into the functional activity of these underlying tumor driving signaling pathways. mRNA levels transcribed from direct target genes regulated by the pathway transcription factors are measured and translated into a quantitative pathway activity scores. The activity score of each pathway is reported on a scale from 0 to 100, resulting in a quantitative characterization of the cell molecular phenotype. OncoSignal can support drug development, patient stratification for clinical trials, and cancer research.

“Having information regarding signaling pathways that could underlie critical immunologic populations within the tumor microenvironment may be pivotal in understanding how drugs affect the cancer. I am very interested in new technologies that I can use to investigate signaling pathway activity in cancer cells and immune cells for my research in this area”.

“High grade serous ovarian carcinoma is still a hard to treat cancer. During the last 20 years we have hardly seen an improvement of survival rates. Recently, we have demonstrated that OncoSignal helps to understand the molecular mechanisms driving high grade serous ovarian cancer in individual patients helping future selection of more effective personalized therapies with targeted drugs. We aim to start a prospective study to further investigate the potential of OncoSignal in patients with ovarian carcinoma”.

"Nowadays, next-generation sequencing by using large panel is commonly recognized as a useful approach to improve cancer patient care. However, estimating the activity of specific pathways rather than single genes aberration may represent a more relevant approach to propose personalised cancer treatments by identifying the main driving mechanisms in each tumour. In this regard, Oncosignal represents a key innovation that can improve dramatically the capacity of molecular tumor board to recommend the right treatment for the right patient".

We are pleased to receive guidance and support by international experts:
PACMAN study supported by EIT Health
Functional signaling Pathway ACtivity complementing DNA Mutation ANalysis for precision medicine (PACMAN)
The PACMAN study, in collaboration between Institute Gustave Roussy and Philips, will test how well the OncoSignal solution increases the effectiveness of new, personalized cancer therapy. Significant progress has been made with targeted drugs that block tumor-driving molecular pathways, but it is still difficult to predict how patients will respond. OncoSignal was designed to improve selection of optimal personalized therapy for individual patients and will contribute to disruption of cancer care by moving from treatment based on cancer type to tumor biology. Assessment of the functional molecular phenotype will provide improved therapy response prediction compared to DNA genotyping analysis alone. The project promises to improve clinical outcomes, especially for hard-to-treat cancers, reduce unnecessary side effects from ineffective therapies and save costs due to more effective (personalized) therapies.
