Medical AI company Lunit has announced several research initiatives to advance cancer treatment. At the ESMO 2026 Congress, the company will present findings from its ‘AI forHER’ project, a collaboration with AstraZeneca, Daiichi Sankyo, and the Institut de Cancérologie de l’Ouest. This project uses the Lunit SCOPE biomarker platform to analyze HER2 expression in breast cancer patients.

Lunit has also entered a research agreement with Summit Therapeutics to apply its Lunit SCOPE IO platform to immuno-oncology development programs. This partnership aims to use AI-powered pathology to analyze H&E-stained whole-slide images to characterize tumor microenvironment features. The research is intended to support the development of ivonescimab, a first-in-class PD-1 / VEGF bispecific antibody, by assisting in biomarker discovery and patient stratification.
