Sophia Genetics SA is a data-driven medicine software company with headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland and Boston, Massachusetts.[2][3][4][5] It provides genomic and radiomic analysis for hospitals, laboratories, and biopharma institutions.[6][7]

History

Sophia Genetics was co-founded by Jurgi Camblong, Pierre Hutter, and Lars Steinmetz in 2011 as a start-up at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). It began as a research tool for hospitals and federally regulated health care labs, and then expanded to biopharma institutions.[8]

In 2014, the company introduced an analytical software platform, the Sophia DDM Platform (Data-Driven Medicine),[9][10] which helps to interpret circulating tumor DNA and circulating tumour cells in blood, urine, cerebral spinal fluid and other liquid samples.[11] The platform is used for oncology, hereditary cancers, metabolic disorders, pediatrics, cardiology, and for rare disease research.[11]

In 2018, the company set up its first research and development center in France and made acquisition of a France-based molecular biology and genetic analytics software development company, Interactive Biosoftware.[12][13] That same year, Sophia Genetics opened its U.S. headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts.[14]

In August 2020, the company released a data analysis solution that was focused on predicting the disease evolution of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.[15] Also in 2022, the firm began development of a new method for detecting extrachromosomal DNA through collaboration with startup firm Boundless Bio.[1]

In July 2021, Sophia Genetics went public with an IPO backed by J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and Credit Suisse.[16][17]

Partnership

In 2016, Sophia Genetics entered into a comarketing agreement with Illumina allowing the two companies to promote adoption of next- generation DNA sequencing.[18]

In 2019, Sophia Genetics formed partnerships with Integrated DNA Technologies and Paragon Genomics, next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay development company, to provide COVID-19 test kits[19][20]

In 2021, the company partnered with MGI, a subsidiary of BGI Group, to enable their users to access the SOPHiA DDM Platform for data analysis and interpretation.[21] In March 2021, Sophia Genetics announced a long-term collaboration agreement with Hitachi.[22]

In 2022, the firm committed to a collaboration with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to advance predictive tumor analysis and, more broadly, clinical decision support.[1]
