Owkin Announces International Validation Results of BRCAura: AI-Driven Screening for gBRCA Mutations Directly From Pathology Slides3.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release

Owkin shares promising validation results for BRCAura RUO, a clinical-grade research-use-only AI product designed to screen for germline BRCA1/2 mutations (gBRCAm) directly from digitized breast cancer pathology slides. Breast cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. Identifying patients with germline BRCA1/2 mutations is essential for guiding targeted treatment decisions, but testing is not always consistently offered to eligible individuals, and implementation varies between countries. The model concept was initiated as part of Owkin’s ongoing partnership with Gustave Roussy and Centre Léon Bérard through PortrAIt, a French consortium dedicated to advancing precision medicine with AI-enabled digital pathology. Fostered through collaboration with AstraZeneca, as announced in October 2024, the development of BRCAura aims to accelerate and expand identification of BRCA mutations in patients with breast cancer. Strong validation across internationa
