IXICO PLC IXICO plc, the neuroimaging Contract Research Organisation (CRO) delivering advanced AI analytical insights in neuroscience, is pleased to announce it has been selected by a new client to support its global prospective observational study to assess participants for the early detection of HD. HD is a rare, inherited disease that causes the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain affecting movement, mood and thinking abilities.
The new client is a biotech company specialized in gene therapy for neurodegenerative and other genetic diseases. IXICO will provide a range of its imaging CRO and advanced analytics services across approximately 2.5 years.
Having combined AI imaging biomarker analysis across many HD trials, together with centralised CRO services, IXICO is continuously enhancing its validated disease-optimised advanced analytics technology for this indication. This new contract follows our recent presentation on our new deep learning-based platform, IXIQ.Ai, at the Annual HD Therapeutics Conference in Palm Springs, a technology which IXICO will be applying to this trial. This, together with the ability to deliver its services through our proprietary TrialTracker imaging data management platform, makes IXICO the clear partner of choice for this study.
Giulio Cerroni, Chief Executive Officer of IXICO, commented:"With no current cure for Huntington's, nor interventions that slow disease progression, HD is a devastating rare neurological condition with significant unmet medical needs. We are delighted to further extend our client base and support identifying new insights into this challenging rare neurodegenerative disease. We are committed to ensuring that our validated machine learning AI data analytics, combined with the quality assurance of our TrialTracker platform, enable clients to unlock new insights into disease progression and drug development."
