"Combining Korio's platform with the incredible work currently in progress for Beat AML® will enhance integration across its many partners, leveraging technology to support the discovery of promising new AML therapies," said Ryan Keane, Co-founder and CEO of Korio. "We are honored that LLS, the global leader in creating a world without blood cancer has partnered with us to help achieve their mission."

LLS has assembled an impressive network of Beat AML® partners, including the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), top cancer centers, multiple pharmaceutical companies, a CRO, and select technology experts, who have united to find cures for AML.

"Innovative technology is critical to the success of the Beat AML® Master Clinical Trial," said Len Rosenberg, PhD, RPh, Head of Clinical Operations at LLS. "As we continue to work towards better outcomes for patients through innovation including technology adoption, we are confident that our sites and patients will benefit greatly from Korio's streamlined experience."

About the Beat AML® Master Clinical Trial

The Beat AML® Master Clinical Trial is the first collaborative precision medicine clinical trial in a blood cancer. Launched in 2016 and focused on newly diagnosed patients aged 60 or older, the trial uses advanced genomic technology to match patients to the most promising targeted treatment based on their unique genetic mutations. The trial tests multiple therapies in multiple study arms simultaneously under a "Master Trial" protocol that not only has the power to bring new therapies to acute myeloid leukemia patients faster, but also has the potential to stand as a model for future clinical trials. The trial has already generated strong results, showing superior survival rates and better quality of life when genomic analysis is used to match patients to targeted therapies.
