Advancing Digital Biomarkers for better patient outcomes

IMVARIA brings artificial intelligence to imaging and lab data,
re-imagining clinical assessments in serious diseases.

With FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for the leading
digital biomarker in lung fibrosis.

IMVARIA's lead digital
biomarker program

IMVARIA's lead digital biomarker, Fibresolve, demonstrates the power of IMVARIA's innovation to serve as adjunct in assessment of interstitial lung disease (ILD) including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), potentially avoiding expensive, invasive surgical testing.* Fibresolve uses AI to analyze CT imaging for specific, novel patterns.

Background in IPF:
In the challenging condition of IPF, high-risk patients face high rates of mortality and massive costs with surgical diagnostics. The FDA has already granted Fibresolve with Breakthrough Devices Designation to expedite the medical community's access to more effective non-invasive diagnosis for this life-threatening disease.

Advancing Research in IPF:
Fibresolve met clinical study endpoints for increasing non-invasive diagnosis in challenging cases by 3.2x. Results pending publication.

the platform

The IMVARIA Digital Biomarker Lab

The Digital Biomarker Lab is a centralized, cloud-based digital lab that operates in a broadly similar fashion to that of a specialty CLIA lab–except that we handle data rather than blood or tissue samples. Clinicians, health systems, and clinical trialists transmit cases to the Lab and IMVARIA analyzes the cases and returns reports with results in minutes. The system capacity crosses imaging modalities (eg. CT, MRI), organ systems, and data types (lab results), and follows international standards for quality compliance (eg. ISO 13485). Projects in new disease areas take weeks to months instead of years, and modern architecture supports deep learning, fusion, and multi-dimensional / multi-modal models.

Clinical Diagnostics

Estimated availability in 2023--currently available for research use. IMVARIA is on the front lines of utilizing digital data to improve patient outcomes. Leveraging diverse clinical and laboratory datasets to identify distinct disease signatures addresses many of the challenges with standard diagnostic methods.

Additionally, quantitative-only techniques, including many prognostic calculators, rarely capture the complexities and variance of disease phenotypes. With in-house data in more than 30,000 patients, our systems drive new insights in predicting outcomes and helping better understand risks.

Digital Biomarkers in Clinical Trials

Through analysis of wide-ranging data types and data sources (including patient registries, clinical trials, and public datasets) the company’s next-generation data science optimizes for consistent and accurate disease assessments and predictions. Whether it is optimizing study enrollment characteristics, better risk-stratifying patients at trial enrollment, or developing predictions for treatment response, IMVARIA can help.

We are proud to work with these partners:

The power of digital biomarkers

Led by dual physician-engineers from Google and Stanford Health Care, IMVARIA’s pioneering work with AI-driven digital biomarkers is redefining how to approach complex diseases more effectively.

Redefining digital biomarkers

Our digital biomarkers provide unique insights into diagnosis and disease assessment, driven by AI and high quality captured clinical data. Imaging and lab results form the basis for more complex analysis of multi-modal clinical data.

MAKING Better decisions

The company is empowering physicians to make the best-informed clinical decisions through the precise application of our digital biomarker technology and data science, taking on the greatest challenges in serious and rare diseases.

Mastering SaMD

IMVARIA's Software-as-Medical-Device (SaMD) tools are transforming the use of digital biomarkers for clinical decision-making and therapeutic development-focused clinical trials.

About IMVARIA

Based in Berkeley, CA, IMVARIA is pioneering AI-driven digital biomarker solutions that empower clinicians to make accurate diagnoses and prognoses at earlier stages of disease and reduce the need for invasive biopsy testing. The company is also using its technology to support biopharmaceutical partners through optimizing pre-trial patient stratification and identifying new digital biomarker opportunities for therapeutics development.
