Triomics taps LLMs to accelerate cancer care, raises $15M

May 09, 2024 - venturebeat.com
San Francisco-based startup Triomics has raised $15 million in funding from Lightspeed, Nexus Venture Partners, General Catalyst, and Y Combinator. The company, founded by former MIT and Adobe researchers Sarim Khan and Hrituraj Singh, is developing a family of large language models (LLMs) called OncoLLM to streamline oncology-related workflows and accelerate cancer care. The models, which can complete tasks in minutes that would usually take days or weeks, are designed to work with workflow-specific tools and can be fine-tuned by care centers using their own internal datasets.

Triomics' software offerings, Harmony and Prism, integrate with health system EHRs to help with specific care workflows. Harmony curates data for registry, reporting, or research needs, while Prism handles patient-trial matching by pre-screening oncology patients to find relevant clinical trials. The company plans to use the funding to increase its team and scale up the reach of its product, with a goal of partnering with over a dozen institutions by the end of the year.
