Project Title
OWKIN MSI Gastric Cancer
Lay summary
The objective of this project is for Owkin to test a machine learning algorithm that predicts MSI status from H&E images in patients with gastric cancer. Ultimately, this tool will aid in pre-screening microsatellite instability status in gastric cancer.
Public benefit statement
Owkin has developed the MSIntuit v2 pre-screening solution to assist pathologists in identifying microsatellite instability (MSI) tumours in patients with Gastric cancer. This innovative tool, powered by a deep learning algorithm, classifies patients based on routine haematoxylin and eosin (HE)-stained histology slides, representing a new category of AI-driven diagnostic technology within the emerging digital pathology ecosystem.

As part of its development, Owkin seeks to evaluate the performance of MSIntuit v2 on an external cohort of patients managed by the pathology laboratory at University Hospitals Birmingham (UHB). By leveraging real-world clinical data, this study aims to validate and enhance the tool’s accuracy, supporting the advancement of digital pathology and AI in cancer diagnostics. Ultimately, this project has the potential to improve early detection and treatment decision-making for Gastric cancer, benefiting both patients and healthcare providers.
