Our take

About 1 in 5 people develop cancer in their lifetime, so finding better ways to treat it is a priority. Valar Labs is attempting to revolutionise cancer treatments with its AI-driven diagnostics.

The company specialises in analysing tumour microenvironments using computational histology AI (CHAI) tests to predict patient responses to therapies. This approach allows physicians to make informed, patient-specific decisions about cancer treatment, reducing uncertainty and improving outcomes.

The company has published numerous peer-reviewed studies that show its potential across multiple cancer types. Looking ahead, Valar Labs aims to expand its diagnostic capabilities, continuing to enhance precision oncology and improve patient outcomes globally. The significant funding it has raised will certainly help it on its way.
