FDA Awards Breakthrough Status to Paige’s Latest AI Cancer Detector

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Breakthrough Device Designation to Paige’s AI application, PanCancer Detect. Designed to assist pathologists, this innovative tool aims to enhance cancer detection across multiple tissues and organ sites. This development addresses the increasing demand for pathology services amidst a limited supply of pathologists, thereby potentially transforming cancer diagnostics. 

Paige’s achievement underscores the critical role of artificial intelligence in modern cancer diagnostics. As pathology labs experience a surge in diverse case types, PanCancer Detect offers a multi-tissue platform that can streamline the diagnostic process. By integrating advanced AI technology, Paige aims to reduce diagnostic discrepancies and accelerate turnaround times for patients. Dr. David Klimstra, Co-Founder of Paige, emphasized the potential of AI to revolutionize pathology by prioritizing critical cases for review, ultimately expediting patient results. This breakthrough designation marks another milestone for Paige, which previously secured similar recognition for its Prostate Detect tool.

With this recent recognition from the FDA, Paige reaffirms its leadership in AI-driven pathology. The designation not only highlights the innovation at Paige but also sets a new benchmark for precision and efficiency in cancer diagnostics. As the Paige PanCancer Detect integrates into digital pathology platforms worldwide, it promises a future where cancer detection and treatment are more precise and timely.
