victoria, british columbia (canada), june 25, 2024 – immunoprecise antibodies ltd. (the “company” or “ipa”) (nasdaq: ipa), an ai-driven biotherapeutic research and technology company, today announced that its subsidiary, biostrand, is collaborating with pgxai to leverage biostrand's patented foundation ai model, lensai. this collaboration advances the precision medicine field of pharmacogenomics and supports lensai application programming interface (“api”) commercial rollout through expanding lensai features and market reach. pharmacogenomics, the study of how genetic variations affect drug response, is integral to ipa’s goal to efficiently create tailored therapies and improve patient outcomes. the vast amount of genetic data has historically been difficult for researchers to access, manage, and interpret. lensai was built to address that challenge through its unique ability to analyze large language models simultaneously with many disparate forms of research and patient data. lensai was recently made available by biostrand to certain current and prospective partners through an api. biostrand’s collaboration with pgxai is an important next step aimed at providing lensai users the ability to apply pharmacogenetic analysis, reflecting our shared mission of better healthcare solutions through advanced technology. “the work we’ve begun with pgxai marks a significant application of lensai to a critical real-world challenge, enabling the development of a unique pharmacogenomics ai model,” said dr. jennifer bath, president, and ceo of ipa. “with more genomic data and new pharmacogenetic insights, more advanced methods are urgently needed to analyze and predict treatment responses and adverse drug reactions. we believe that lensai offers a potentially groundbreaking approach to creating an adaptive ai model that is designed to predict individual patient responses to both existing and new drugs.” mike zack, md, phd, ceo of pgxai, commented, “we are excited to partner with biostrand, a leader in ai-powered biotherapeutic solutions. our collaboration aims to create a transformative ai model for the pharmacogenomics sector, enhancing our ability to predict effective and safe therapies. this partnership represents a significant step toward revolutionizing personalized medicine.” allan gobbs, executive chairman of pgxai, added, “the clinical value of pharmacogenomics is increasingly recognized by healthcare providers and payers. we believe that our model will enable unprecedented personalization and precision in pharmacogenetic recommendations, potentially transforming medication prescription practices on a global scale.” despite advancements in generative ai, vector search, and multi-omics, practical applications of precision medicine remain limited, contributing to over 30% of adverse drug reactions, as noted in the lancet1. by sequencing the human genome and cataloging genetic variants, we can better understand and predict how patients will respond to specific drugs. integrating pharmacogenomics with electronic health records (ehrs) and artificial intelligence (ai) offers significant potential to personalize treatments and enhance patient outcomes. a robust ai model in this field has the potential to revolutionize the $400 billion2 prescription drug market, significantly improving patient outcomes and driving innovation in precision medicine. this presents a compelling investment opportunity to transform healthcare by delivering cutting-edge solutions in the rapidly evolving precision medicine landscape. dirk van hyfte, md, phd, head of technology at ipa and co-founder of biostrand, stated, "we are thrilled to deploy our lensai software, available through api, to support pgxai’s cutting-edge initiatives. our collaboration is set to enhance rational drug design by integrating advanced ai analysis of vast genomic data, enabling the precise tailoring of therapies to individual genetic profiles. this approach not only boosts the efficacy and safety of treatments but also streamlines the drug development process, reducing both timelines and costs. our technology is developed to help optimize drug therapies for specific patient needs, marking a significant advancement in personalized medicine." 1 https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/piis0140-6736(22)01841-4/abstract 2 https://www.iqvia.com/insights/the-iqvia-institute/reports-and-publications/reports/the-use-of-medicines-in-the-us-2023 about immunoprecise antibodies ltd. immunoprecise antibodies ltd. has several subsidiaries in north america and europe including entities such as talem therapeutics llc, biostrand bv, immunoprecise antibodies (canada) ltd. and immunoprecise antibodies (europe) b.v.

IPA's Subsidiary, BioStrand, Solves the Information Integration Dilemma (IID) for Systems Biology
victoria, british columbia may 30, 2023 – immunoprecise antibodies ltd. (nasdaq: ipa) (“immunoprecise” or “ipa” or the “company”), an ai-driven biotherapeutic research and technology company, today announced that its subsidiary, biostrand®, has successfully solved the information integration dilemma (iid) by developing a unique technology design that enables their patented hyft technology to encapsulate and unify diverse data modalities - including syntactical (sequence) data, 3d structural data, unstructured scientific information (e.g. scientific literature), and beyond - into a singular, integrated framework. this breakthrough approach facilitates efficient data fusion, enabling a comprehensive analysis and interpretation of complex biological data. with hyfts, biostrand effectively addresses the iid, paving the way for quicker and more potent biological discoveries. this innovation has the potential to bring a paradigm shift in various domains including drug development, biomarker discovery, and the study of disease pathology, among others. the iid has long been a significant challenge for the biotechnology industry, as researchers and investors have grappled with the complexities of integrating various data types to gain meaningful insights. in the rapidly evolving field of biotechnology, data is generated from multiple sources such as scientific literature, experimental data, and genomic information. the integration of these different data types is critical for accelerating innovation and driving the discovery of novel therapeutics. however, traditional approaches have struggled to efficiently combine and analyze this diverse data, often leading to incomplete or inaccurate conclusions. biostrand's breakthrough approach leverages its patented hyft® technology and lensaitm platform, which together enable the efficient analysis and understanding of complex biological data. by solving the iid, biostrand has unlocked new possibilities for the discovery and development of novel therapeutics, which is expected to benefit both patients and the investor community. dirk van hyfte, co-founder and head of innovation of biostrand, said, "we are thrilled to have overcome the information integration dilemma, which has long been a major hurdle in our industry. our hyft technology and lensai platform are now poised to revolutionize the way researchers and ai-driven systems process and analyze complex biological data, ultimately leading to faster and more effective drug discovery and development." biostrand's hyft technology extracts unique patterns, known as universal fingerprint™ patterns, from the entire biosphere, and integrates them with various data sources, such as scientific papers and medical records. the resulting knowledge graph encompasses over 660 million hyfts and more than 25 billion relations, providing a powerful resource for researchers and ai-driven analysis. the lensai platform, powered by hyft technology, takes advantage of the latest advancements in large language models (llms) to bridge the gap between syntax (sequences) and semantics (functions). this enables the platform to extract valuable insights from vast amounts of data, without the limitations of traditional llms. ipa's support of biostrand's pioneering work reinforces its commitment to investing in cutting-edge biotechnology solutions with the potential to transform the industry. the successful resolution of the information integration dilemma not only demonstrates the innovative nature of biostrand's technology but also highlights the company's dedication to improving the lives of patients worldwide. about immunoprecise antibodies ltd: immunoprecise antibodies ltd. has several subsidiaries in north america and europe including entities such as talem therapeutics llc, biostrand bv, immunoprecise antibodies (canada) ltd., and immunoprecise antibodies (europe) b.v.
