Predictive Oncology Inc. shares rose 33% after the company said it will present positive results from a study using its artificial intelligence to more accurately predict survival outcomes among ovarian cancer patients.
Shares were 33% higher at $2.10 at 3:29 p.m. EDT on Tuesday.
The purpose of the study was to determine if Predictive Oncology "could leverage its artificial intelligence and other capabilities to develop machine learning models that could more accurately predict both short-term (two-year) and long-term (five-year) survival outcomes among ovarian cancer patients," the company said.
Predictive Oncology collaborated with UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital on the study.
"The ability to employ ML to better predict patient prognoses may help with clinical management and monitoring and could serve as a decision support tool to better tailor treatment plans to individual patients," said Robert Edwards, co-director, Gynecologic Oncology Research, Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC. "The results of this study strongly support continued development of such ML models and subsequent incorporation into daily clinical practice."
