The potential to expand the current treatment for HER2-low and -zero patients, highlights the limitations of traditional HER2 assessment, including HER2 intra-tumoral heterogeneity, differential IHC pathology staining, and inter-reader variability. We therefore sought to address how to optimally identify HER2-low…
Here, we developed two solutions to communication bottlenecks that speed-up simulation by ∼4-fold for hybrid stochastic-deterministic simulations and by over 100-fold for fully deterministic simulations.
Here, we perform a study in an independent cohort of early-stage and locally advanced breast cancer patients to forecast tumor response to NAT and assess the stability of a previously validated biophysical simulation platform.

We used a novel 2-paramenter pharmacokinetic modeling framework that allows biosignatures to be extracted from dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies that contain 3-6 timepoints spaced 60-90 seconds apart. These parameters, referred to as P1 and P2,…
Currently, a lack of tests to differentiate patients likely to respond to IO vs. poor responders precludes a tailored approach to immunotherapy. Here we describe an imaging biomarker that allows physicians to target breast cancer patients with the highest likelihood…
Despite chemotherapeutic advances, surgery remains a putative treatment modality for breast cancer. The type of surgery chosen, and its ultimate clinical and cosmetic consequences, depends on a surgeon’s ability to accurately assess a tumor’s size, distribution, and position in the…
In order to accurately evaluate the potential success of various surgical options, a surgeon must mentally translate these 2D images into more realistic, 3D image to visualize breast and tumor morphologies.
We developed the TumorScope engine, a software platform that utilizes pretreatment diagnostic data to build a computational tumor model that simulates in vivo tumor characteristics and interactions, incorporating morphology, metabolism, vascularity, and nutrient and drug delivery.
To drive further utility, we now investigate a pCR score as a continuous outcome (0-100) to establish a prognostic system that evaluates the predictive probability that a patient will achieve pCR with any SOC NAT regimen.
