Platform
Beacon provides a scalable EEG analytics platform aimed at accelerating and de-risking therapeutics in neurology, psychiatry, and sleep medicine. Powered by a combination of unique data assets and machine learning algorithms, our platform identifies and standardizes neurobiomarkers to increase the probability of success at each stage of drug development.
- Translational Research
- Analyze existing EEG for insights into mechanism, PK/PD and patient stratification to guide further development efforts.
- Qualified Biomarker Development
- Develop and validate neurobiomarkers to improve cohort selection, de-confound standard clinical assessments, and identify novel endpoints.
- Efficacy & Dose-Finding
- Improve dose-finding with direct neurophysiologic insights and identify promising responses to properly power subsequent trials.
- Continuous Analysis
- Aggregate and analyze trial data in real-time to ensure consistency across trial sites, prioritize patient safety and reduce trial delays.
algorithms
We go beyond traditional sleep analyses to capture the neural basis of sleep physiology. In addition to algorithmic gold-standard sleep staging from EEG, Beacon’s AI quantifies sleep microarchitecture (e.g. sleep spindles, arousals, etc.) to unlock novel biomarkers for neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases.
At Beacon, we continuously strive to ensure that our algorithms perform equitably across the diverse patient populations we serve. We believe this is critical to address health care disparities and ensure that novel precision therapies improve brain health for all.
Datastore™
Beacon Datastore™ contains an unparalleled size and diversity of data linked to clinical phenotype, enabling world-class clinical discovery.
Beacon’s Datastore™ includes clinical-grade EEG from thousands of individuals without CNS disease. This normative database accelerates discovery of disease-specific neurobiomarkers and enables identification of drug effects that “normalize” physiologic processes such as sleep architecture.
Portal
The Portal supports end-to-end clinician workflows that combine in-browser signal processing, interactive data visualization and machine learning reader-assist.
Our network of epileptologists provide central EEG reading services augmented by Beacon’s AI to improve efficiency and ensure standardization. Expert services include safety and toxicity assessments, as well as physician sign-off on clinical trial reports.
Partnerships
We partner with biopharma companies, academic medical centers, and neurotechnology developers to improve the diagnosis and treatment of neurological and psychiatric diseases.
