WiMi Developed An Integrated Multidisciplinary Algorithm—–MultiFeatureEvoCluster

0

BEIJING, Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — WiMi Hologram Cloud Inc. (NASDAQ: WIMI) ("WiMi" or the "Company"), a leading global Hologram Augmented Reality ("AR") Technology provider, today announced that it developed an integrated multidisciplinary algorithm for clustering heterogeneous datasets, namely, MultiFeatureEvoCluster technology, which not only effectively handles multi-featured datasets, but also assigns explicit semantic meanings to the clustering results.

Traditional clustering methods are based only on attributes, distances, and density values of homogeneous and single-feature datasets, which cannot add clear semantic meaning to the clustering results. WiMi’s MultiFeatureEvoCluster technology is an innovative cluster analysis method designed for processing heterogeneous datasets. The technology integrates advanced techniques and methods from multiple subject areas to ensure efficient processing and accurate clustering of complex datasets.

MultiFeatureEvoCluster employs a recombination evolutionary operator, which is capable of dynamically adjusting the cluster structure of the data during the clustering process, thus improving the adaptability of the clustering algorithm. Second, the technology utilizes Levy on-the-fly optimization, a stochastic search-based optimization method that helps the algorithm quickly find key patterns and clustering features in the data set, accelerating the speed and accuracy of the clustering analysis. In addition, the MultiFeatureEvoCluster incorporates several statistical techniques, including quartiles and percentiles. These can help the algorithm better understand the distribution characteristics and trends of the data, thus improving the accuracy and reliability of the clustering analysis. It also employs the Euclidean distance of the K-mean algorithm as a measure of similarity between data to ensure the validity and stability of the clustering results.

At the core of WiMi’s MultiFeatureEvoCluster technology is a multidisciplinary integration that combines knowledge and techniques from different subject areas to form a unique framework for cluster analysis. By integrating evolutionary algorithms, optimization methods and statistical techniques, MultiFeatureEvoCluster technology can handle complex heterogeneous datasets with different types of data, including text, images, numerical values, etc., and provide users with comprehensive and interpretable cluster analysis results.

The design concept of the technology is to ensure the efficiency and accuracy of the algorithm while making the clustering results have clear semantic meanings. It helps users better understand patterns and associations in data, provides deeper data insights to enterprises and research organizations, and provides powerful support for their decision-making and strategic planning.

Behind the development of MultiFeatureEvoCluster is a multidisciplinary team focused on data analysis and algorithmic innovation, consisting of data experts, statistical specialists and computer scientists. The technology is considered a major advancement over traditional clustering methods, as it breaks through the limitations of single-feature datasets and is capable of handling more complex and diverse data types.

In addition to excelling in clustering accuracy, the MultiFeatureEvoCluster technology demonstrates sensitivity to cluster overlap, number of clusters, cluster dimensionality, cluster structure, and cluster shape. The analysis of these features provides organizations with more dimensional insights into their data, helping them better understand the underlying patterns and trends behind the data. This ability to synthesize and analyze provides a more diversified reference basis for business decision-making, helping companies maintain an edge in a competitive market environment.

Facing the data challenges of the digital era, WiMi has introduced MultiFeatureEvoCluster technology that brings new opportunities and possibilities to enterprises. Its unique multi-feature analysis and evolutionary clustering capabilities make it a rising star in the current data analytics space. For organizations that are eager to mine more value from behind complex data, MultiFeatureEvoCluster technology will surely be a strong partner to help them move towards a data-driven future.

Digital transformation leader strengthens regional presence and capabilities with AWS to help organizations successfully migrate Oracle to AWS Cloud

ANDOVER, Mass., Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Navisite, a global strategic advisory and digital transformation leader, announced today that it has strengthened its presence and collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Asia-Pacific to help organizations migrate and modernize Oracle applications and databases on AWS Cloud.

In addition to increased regional investment with consulting and technical resources, Navisite will partner with AWS teams in Singapore and Australia on go-to-market activities such as events, webinars, and other sales and marketing collaborations to educate and support customer migrations of Oracle environments, including Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS), JD Edwards, Hyperion, and PeopleSoft.

"Organizations are concerned with moving business-critical Oracle apps to the cloud, especially in areas like security, performance, and licensing compliance," said Mark Clayman, CEO at Navisite. "We’ve had enormous success helping customers overcome these barriers and reduce management complexity and costs on the cloud. We look forward to what we can accomplish with AWS to extend these capabilities in Asia-Pacific and meet the demand for cloud expertise and services."

Navisite has been helping organizations migrate Oracle workloads to AWS since 2011 and is an AWS Premier Tier Services Partner with specialized AWS Migration and Oracle competencies. Navisite works with customers to develop the optimal migration path for Oracle-based workloads and support their success with end-to-end cloud migration, optimization, and managed services.

For example, Navisite helped Penske Australia & New Zealand reduce its data center footprint and migrate Oracle EBS to AWS. The migration not only delivered significant cost savings but also enabled the company to focus on important IT initiatives that deliver business value, rather than spending time and resources managing a legacy system.

"The migration process was as painless as Navisite portrayed it to be," said Bobby Stojceski, chief security officer at Penske Australia & New Zealand. "And now that AWS is part of our environment, we’re seeing more capabilities that we could use in AWS that we didn’t have available to us before."

"Many organizations don’t realize what options they have for Oracle, so it’s important we bring the right resources and capabilities to support their success," said Andrew Powell, head of SAP and Oracle Partner Network – APJ at AWS. "Navisite’s experience migrating Oracle workloads to AWS is exceptional, and we’re thrilled to expand our collaboration in Asia-Pacific to support one of the fastest-growing markets for AWS."

Clarity's theranostic prostate cancer trial progresses at the highest dose level cohort

0

HIGHLIGHTS

Cohort 3 of the theranostic SECuRE trial investigating 64Cu/67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) has enrolled and treated 3 participants who received therapy with 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA at the highest dose level of 12GBq.­ No dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) have been reported to date. Only one participant had one adverse event of Grade 1 reduction in neutrophil count and the participant fully recovered.  The Safety Review Committee (SRC) has recommended that the trial continues with the additional 3 participants as planned in cohort 3. All 3 participants had been heavily pre-treated and failed a number of commercial and investigational therapies prior to treatment in the trial. Despite this, 2 of the 3 participants so far have shown a reduction in Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) levels within weeks after a single cycle of 12GBq 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA. Recruitment has opened at clinical sites in the US for the additional 3 participants in cohort 3 for a single cycle of 12GBq of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA.

SYDNEY, Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Clarity Pharmaceuticals (ASX: CU6) ("Clarity"), a clinical stage radiopharmaceutical company with a mission to develop next-generation products that improve treatment outcomes for children and adults with cancer, is pleased to announce the successful completion of the first stage of cohort 3 of the Phase I/IIa theranostic trial, SECuRE, evaluating 64Cu/67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in patients with mCRPC where 3 participants have been treated at the highest dose level of 12GBq of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA. No adverse events were reported in relation to 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA. Only 1 adverse event was reported and related to the 12GBq cycle of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in 1 of the 3 participants, which was a grade 1 decrease in neutrophil count, and the patient has fully recovered. No ongoing adverse events and no DLTs have been reported and the SRC has recommended the trial progresses with the 3 additional participants as planned in cohort 3.

The SECuRE trial (NCT04868604)1 is a Phase I/IIa theranostic trial for identification and treatment of Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) expressing mCRPC using 64Cu/67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA. 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA is used to visualise PSMA expressing lesions and select candidates for subsequent 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA therapy. The trial is a multi-centre, single arm, dose escalation trial with a cohort expansion involving up to 44 patients in the US. The aim of the trial is to determine the safety and efficacy of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA for the treatment of prostate cancer.

Cohort 3 of the trial has a 3+3 study design with the intent to gather and analyse data from the first 3 participants before progressing with an additional 3 participants. The initial data is very encouraging with no DLTs observed at the highest dose of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA (12GBq) and the SRC, responsible for assessing safety of participants and overseeing the general progress of the trial, has assessed the data and recommended the trial continues.

Cohort 3 is the last to assess single doses of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA and will be followed by a multi-dose cohort, pending safety evaluation. The initial 3 participants in cohort 3 were heavily pre-treated prior to entering the trial, having received multiple lines of therapy including other investigational products, radioligand therapy and chemotherapy. They continue to be monitored by their physicians for safety and treatment response as per the trial protocol. All 3 participants in cohort 3 remain on the trial following their recent administration of 12GBq of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA, with 2 demonstrating a PSA reduction within weeks of dosing, one of which is greater than 90% reduction and the second approximately 40% reduction to date.

Clarity’s Executive Chairperson, Dr Alan Taylor, commented, "We are excited by the PSA declines seen in almost all patients to date in cohorts 2 and 3 from just a single cycle. This result is also seen in patients that have been heavily pre-treated and have failed many other therapies that are either commercial or investigational. Moreover, the safety profile is very favorable and there have been no DLTs reported to date.

"SAR-bisPSMA was designed to be a best-in-class PSMA product as, unlike all other PSMA products in the market, it has dual targeting. The product was optimised to address the challenges of low uptake and retention in lesions that the first generation of PSMA products suffer from, and in both pre-clinical and clinical development to date we have observed two to three times the uptake of SAR-bisPSMA in lesions, followed by retention in lesions out to at least 96 hours. So far, the higher uptake and retention of product, coupled with the advantageous properties of copper-67, has shown quite impressive responses measured by PSA reductions in patients from single cycles of product to date.

"A number of patients from the SECuRE trial have either received, or will soon receive, additional doses of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA under the US Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Expanded Access Program (EAP). This demonstrates the initial clinical benefit observed in such patients after the administration of a single cycle of the product during the trial.

"As we have seen PSA reductions in the majority of patients after a single cycle of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA across all dose levels, which is known to be an independent prognostic indicator of improved overall survival following radio-ligand therapy2,3, we hope to achieve long-term and durable responses once we progress to the multi-dose cohorts of the trial. Furthermore, with commercial quantities of the 67Cu radioisotope now being routinely produced domestically in the US, we see a clear path to commercialisation as we can resolve the supply and manufacturing issues which have plagued the commercial launch of first-generation products. We look forward to sharing more data along with any further updates from patients who may receive single or multiple cycles of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in our programs and bringing this product to the greater prostate cancer patient population," said Dr Taylor.

About SAR-bisPSMA

SAR-bisPSMA derives its name from the word "bis", which reflects a novel approach of connecting two PSMA-targeting agents to Clarity’s proprietary sarcophagine (SAR) technology that securely holds copper isotopes inside a cage-like structure, called a chelator. Unlike other commercially available chelators, the SAR technology prevents copper leakage into the body. SAR-bisPSMA is a TCT that can be used with isotopes of copper-64 (Cu-64 or 64Cu) for imaging and copper-67 (Cu-67 or 67Cu) for therapy.­

64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA and 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA are unregistered products. Individual results may not represent the overall safety and efficacy of the products. The data outlined in this announcement has not been assessed by health authorities such as the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). A clinical development program is currently underway to assess the efficacy and safety of these products. There is no guarantee that these products will become commercially available.
