American Marconi Wireless News - Onco-Innovations Welcomes AstraZeneca's Interest in Founding Role in PROmAI - an Inka-led AI-Oncology Consortium

The PROmAI Consortium, initiated and led by Inka Health, is a collaborative initiative focused on advancing the development and validation of artificial intelligence methodologies to support improved prediction of oncology outcomes. Designed to address current limitations in translational modeling, particularly during the transition from early- to late-phase clinical development, the Consortium aims to bring together insights from pharmaceutical, data science, and clinical research communities. Inka Health is in active discussions with additional global pharmaceutical companies regarding potential participation in the Consortium and will provide further updates as progress is made.

By combining real-world and clinical trial data-including molecular, clinical, imaging, and other multimodal datasets-with emerging techniques in causal AI, the Consortium seeks to foster innovation in predictive modeling, enhance interpretability and reliability of results, and contribute to frameworks aligned with regulatory and payer expectations. Participating members will collaborate on the design and execution of research activities that support the broader goal of improving trust, transparency, and utility of AI-driven insights in oncology drug development. For Inka Health, this Consortium represents a strategic opportunity to lead the advancement of AI methodologies in oncology.

Through the EOI, AstraZeneca has expressed its intention to participate in the Consortium's exploratory phase, which will include joint planning discussions, early input into project direction, and strategic alignment around key use cases. The collaboration is expected to evolve over time, with the potential for broader participation in research publications, workshops, and future initiatives that advance the Consortium's scientific mission.

Onco-Innovations views this Expression of Interest as a strong validation of the PROmAI initiative's relevance and potential impact in the rapidly evolving field of oncology R&D. The Company remains committed to fostering cross-sector collaboration to unlock the transformative potential of artificial intelligence in clinical innovation.

"This is not just about proving that AI can work in oncology-it's about shaping how it should work in ways that matter to regulators, clinicians, and ultimately patients. Having AstraZeneca engage at this early stage signals a shared commitment to advancing practical, credible AI applications in one of medicine's most complex domains. As leaders in this space, we see PROmAI not only as a research initiative but as a foundation for setting standards around trust, utility, and translational impact in oncology-focused AI," stated Paul Arora, CEO of Inka Health.
