Integrated molecular testing and clinical decision support solutions streamline the precision medicine workflow for healthcare systems with internal labs
ST. LOUIS & PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PierianDx, makers of the leading bioinformatics platform for clinical genomics testing, and Syapse, the leading provider of precision medicine software, announced a partnership that will accelerate the adoption of precision medicine by healthcare systems. The companies will provide functional integration between PierianDx’s Clinical Genomicist Workstation™ and Syapse Precision Medicine PlatformSM in order to streamline the end-to-end genomic testing workflow for hospitals with in-house labs.
“Integrating Syapse’s industry-leading precision medicine platform with PierianDx’s laboratory workflow and Collaborative Knowledgebase provides a powerful solution to advance patient care and treatment.”
Using Syapse, healthcare systems will be able to integrate molecular test results generated in PierianDx’s Clinical Genomicist Workstation with clinical data from the electronic health record, providing physicians with molecularly informed decision support at the point of care. The PierianDx NGS Gateway Program, which provides an outsourced lab testing service, will integrate directly with Syapse, streamlining test ordering and results delivery to customers.
“As genomic testing becomes a routine part of cancer care, healthcare provider systems are increasingly implementing molecular profiling testing services within their internal pathology laboratories,” said Jonathan Hirsch, Founder & President of Syapse. “Our partnership with PierianDx will supply healthcare systems’ in-house labs with a simpler and more integrated workflow. The PierianDx bioinformatics platform and testing services will ultimately speed the delivery of precision care to patients.”
In addition, the partnership will give customers the option to utilize the PierianDx Collaborative Knowledgebase™ from within Syapse, providing clinicians with meaningful medical insights for patient-specific disease conditions. The knowledgebase includes up-to-the-moment curated publications, biological information, computational predictions, population frequency data, clinical research and trial correlations, and disease variants reported in clinical databases.
“This partnership offers the best of both worlds to our clients,” said Ted Briscoe, CEO of PierianDx. “Integrating Syapse’s industry-leading precision medicine platform with PierianDx’s laboratory workflow and Collaborative Knowledgebase provides a powerful solution to advance patient care and treatment.”
