Caris Life Sciences and Syapse will collaborate to collect and combine molecular and genomic information with clinical treatment and outcomes data across the Caris Centers of Excellence for Precision Medicine Network.

Integration of Caris Molecular Intelligence, Caris’ panomic, comprehensive tumor profiling service, with the Syapse Precision Medicine Platform , will provide a powerful real-time, point-of-care, clinical decision support system to enable more informed treatment decisions for each individual patient. Participating COE Network sites can use the integrated decision support system, and may use Syapse to further support their complete precision medicine workflows.

Caris Molecular Intelligence uses multiple technology platforms, including a proprietary 592-gene Next-Generation Sequencing panel with full gene coverage to assess point mutations, indels, and copy number variations, alongside RNAseq, for select gene fusions, in addition to Immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, and other platforms.

“We expect to profile 50,000 to 100,000 cancer patients annually across the COE Network. This is the largest oncology focused effort to combine comprehensive genomic and molecular profiling information with clinical outcomes data,” said David Halbert, chairman and CEO of Caris Life Sciences.

When our hematological malignancy testing pilot project began in Eldoret, Kenya, there seemed to be a mismatch in relation to progress in healthcare. The region, like much of sub-Saharan Africa, had been focusing on combatting infectious diseases such as HIV and malaria—which was much-needed—yet cancer care was under-resourced. 
Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming biomedical research and healthcare. Large language models, foundation models, and AI agents are increasingly being deployed to assist with data interpretation, literature review, clinical decision support, and translational research. 
In modern oncology, important insights from clinical trials often emerge years after initial publication. As new therapies extend survival and transition more patients into long-term remissions, clinicians and researchers are increasingly looking beyond initial response rates to understand durability, long-term safety, and even the possibility of a cure.
