Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) offer immense potential for precision medicine. However, achieving controlled and scalable differentiation into target cell lines is crucial for clinical success. To ensure product safety and efficacy, various key performance indicators and quality attributes must be closely monitored.
Phoenestra focuses on creating scalable technology platforms for cell-based products, particularly for drug discovery and cell therapy. In preclinical R&D, collecting and analyzing bioprocessing data is vital to maintain product quality. Microscopy plays a pivotal role in this process, but structured image data analysis requires versatile IT solutions.
KML Vision has developed a software platform that utilizes state-of-the-art AI for specialized image analysis solutions. These AI methods address bioprocess optimization, quality assurance, and the definition of complex products, helping tackle the inherent complexity of biology.
According to Philipp Kainz, CEO of KML Vision, "Developing novel cell-based therapeutics demands rigorous quality assurance of complex biological processes, preferably in a continuous and automated way. Our AI-driven image analysis technology reliably enhances workflows across the value chain and we are looking forward to a fruitful partnership with Phoenestra."
Klaus Graumann, CEO of Phoenestra, states, "We are committed to bringing promising new therapeutic modalities closer to patients. Cell-based therapeutics are among the most complex biopharmaceuticals, requiring new analytical approaches for success. Therefore, we are excited to announce our strategic collaboration with KML Vision, a leader in AI-driven image analysis."
The partnership focuses on custom designing and large-scale production of iPSC-derived products. Together, these companies will advance their platform technologies and accelerate the development of novel cell-based products for drug discovery and therapeutic applications.
