CollabRx is a leading company in cloud-based expert systems to inform healthcare decision-making. The company uses integration technology to aggregate and contextualize the world’s knowledge on genomics-based medicine with specific insights from the nation’s top cancer experts.

The company announced today the release of its second generation Therapy Finder application for lung cancer. This specific application is a web-based decision support tool that enables oncologists to take into account the genetics of a patient’s tumor when determining a treatment plan. This second generation incorporates the results of recent advances in lung cancer clinical and translational research.

The app content is constantly kept up to date by CollabRx’s own scientists using the company’s proprietary semantic integration platform. This is a technology developed by CollabRx to enable the efficient and semi-automated gathering, annotation, and curation of the world’s knowledge on molecular medicine for oncology.

These apps are the first to be developed by CollabRx. The goal is to develop tools to help oncologists make informed decisions regarding their patients for all the common cancer types.
