Owkin has announced a new partnership with AstraZeneca to develop an AI-powered pre-screening solution for gBRCA mutations (gBRCAm) in breast cancer. This tool aims to simplify genetic testing by analyzing digitized pathology slides to identify BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. The initiative seeks to accelerate and expand access to gBRCA testing, which many patients may not currently receive. The partnership was announced on October 2, 2024.
