What Predicts and What Doesn’t

Every drug-specific signal we test gets a published verdict. We run held-out cohort ablations against programs whose real-world outcomes are now known, and we disclose the full picture — the signals that held, the signals that failed to clear the bar, and the evidence either way.

+5.2pp held-out AUC over the structural baseline, stable across cohort sizes. The genomic_validated cohort odds ratio was 5.59 vs the Schwaederle (2016) literature anchor of 1.35 — we ship the lower anchor with the overshoot disclosed.

Every signal we have tested appears below. A not-predictive or flag-only verdict is a feature, not a failure — it means we ran the test, documented the result, and did not ship a signal we could not defend.

Drug-Specific Predictive Signals in Oncology: What Held and What Didn't

We tested two drug-specific signals against a held-out cohort of oncology programs whose outcomes are now known. Biomarker quality held and is scored in the engine; early-phase ORR magnitude — a signal several vendors market — did not clear our bar and is not scored.
