The milestone reflects significant research, model development, and clinical validation using large-scale multimodal datasets.

Two of Waiv’s artificial intelligence (AI) precision tests—RlapsRisk BC for breast cancer prognostic risk profiling and MSIntuit CRC for colorectal cancer MSI screening—have each received CE Mark certification under the European In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR).
RlapsRisk BC predicts breast cancer relapse risk directly from standard histopathology slides, and can potentially deliver genomic-level risk profiling insights to any pathology lab without extensive further testing. By identifying high-risk patients earlier, it enables more informed, personalized treatment decisions, helping clinicians target aggressive therapies where needed while sparing lower-risk patients from unnecessary treatment.
MSIntuit CRC applies an AI-enabled precision approach to colorectal cancer by offering rapid, scalable Microsatellite Instability (MSI) screening from H&E slides. By integrating into routine testing workflows, MSIntuit CRC rapidly identifies and rules out non-MSI patients to streamline testing for the entire patient population with improved turnaround times and optimized resource use. MSI status is a critical biomarker for identifying patients likely to benefit from immunotherapy, and faster detection can accelerate access to more targeted treatments.
“Securing CE-IVD marking under IVDR is a defining moment for Waiv. This certification reflects not only the scientific and clinical rigor behind our models, but also dedicated work to translate AI innovation into products that can meaningfully impact patient care,” Waiv Co-Founder/CEO Meriem Sefta said. “We are delivering clinically validated AI precision tests into everyday oncology practice, ready to support the drug development and companion diagnostic partnerships ahead of us. This is a global ambition.”
IVDR certification represents a significant shift from previous regulatory standards, requiring extensive clinical evidence, robust performance validation, and continuous post-market oversight. For Waiv, this milestone reflects significant research, model development, and clinical validation using large-scale multimodal datasets, setting a new benchmark for analytical validity, clinical performance, and real-world reliability.
These approvals strengthen Waiv’s position as a partner for laboratories, healthcare providers, and pharmaceutical companies seeking validated AI diagnostics for clinical use and research, according to the company. Laboratories can access Waiv’s tests through Destra, an interoperable digital pathology platform, or by integrating them into existing workflows through compatible IMS and viewer systems such as Proscia, Roche Diagnostics, Sectra, and Tribun Health. Destra offers flexible access to Waiv’s precision tests for routine diagnostics and research, including MSIntuit CRC and RlapsRisk BC.
Waiv exists to catalyze precision medicine with clinical-grade, AI-powered tests that accelerate biomarker discovery and detection, outcome prediction, and treatment-response assessment across oncology. Built on more than seven years of validated medical-AI innovation and one of Europe’s largest multi-institutional data networks, Waiv delivers precise, accurate, and fast analyses that support treatment decisions. Waiv collaborates with global pharmaceutical companies, research institutions, diagnostic organizations, and healthcare systems to bring scalable precision medicine to patients worldwide. Waiv is backed by OTB Ventures and Alpha Intelligence Capital (AIC), with participation from Serena Data Ventures, Karista, SistaFund, and CRB Health Tech, with an initial financing of $35 million dollars to expand its clinical testing solutions and fuel commercial expansion.
