Under the agreement, Owkin will make multimodal patient data from its MOSAIC network accessible for analysis to Servier’s research teams, within K Pro. This agreement is the next chapter in Owkin and Servier’s collaboration, their previous work together being in patient subgroup identification, also in oncology.
K Pro is Owkin’s AI scientist. It brings multimodal patient data and specialized biological agentic AI to drive smarter and faster decision-making to each step of the pharmaceutical value chain. K Pro utilizes specialized biological tools, leveraging a decade of knowledge gained through pharmaceutical partnerships and state-of-the-art AI research. K Pro delivers molecule optimization, target discovery, biomarker identification, subgroup optimization and clinical trial design. K Pro is trained and validated on real-world patient data and through Owkin’s wet lab.
“Our AI scientist is changing the way biopharma works,” said Thomas Clozel, CEO and co-founder of Owkin. “By pairing K Pro with Owkin’s multimodal patient data, Servier’s scientists can investigate the biology of hard-to-treat cancers and reach answers that manual analysis alone cannot deliver.”
“At Servier, we are constantly looking for new ways to deepen our understanding of disease biology and to bring better treatments to patients with hard-to-treat cancers. Access to high-quality patient data and AI-driven analysis in one place, through K Pro, helps our teams generate and test hypotheses with greater speed and confidence. We look forward to applying these capabilities across our oncology research,” said Claude Bertrand, Executive Vice President, Research & Development, Servier.
