OncoHost Wins 2026 BIG Innovation Award in Health Category; Named a Top 10 Innovator – Small Business
Presented by the Business Intelligence Group, the BIG Innovation Awards is a global recognition program honoring organizations, products, and leaders transforming industries through applied innovation, intelligent platforms, and measurable real-world impact.
“The 2026 BIG Innovation Awards winners show that true innovation is no longer about chasing the latest buzzwords or about just having AI, it’s about how you use it.” said Russ Fordyce, Chief Recognition Officer at the Business Intelligence Group. “It’s about building intelligent platforms, automating workflows with purpose, and making trust, privacy, and resilience the foundation of every breakthrough. These organizations and leaders are not just keeping pace with change—they are shaping the future of global business.”
OncoHost was recognized for its PROphet® platform, an AI-driven plasma-proteomics solution designed to help oncologists predict clinical benefit and therapy-related toxicity from a single pre-treatment blood test. Its first commercial offering, PROphetNSCLC®, guides first-line immunotherapy decision-making in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) by revealing host-response insights that extend beyond tumor-only biomarkers.
Unlike traditional oncology biomarker approaches that often provide limited or binary stratification, PROphet® analyzes over 7,000 circulating proteins per patient and applies proprietary machine learning models to generate individualized predictive scores—supporting more confident, evidence-based decisions and helping physicians choose the optimal treatment path from day one.
In the past year, OncoHost has continued to strengthen PROphet®’s biological explainability and clinical relevance, including a JITC-published study decoding resistance mechanisms in NSCLC, while accelerating adoption and expanding global collaborations across precision oncology.
“We are honored to receive the 2026 BIG Innovation Award and to be designated a Top 10 Innovator among small businesses,” said Ofer Sharon, MD, CEO of OncoHost. “This recognition validates our team’s relentless focus on clinical impact—building a platform rooted in systemic biology that helps guide therapy decisions before treatment begins. We’re proud of the momentum we’ve achieved and remain committed to advancing evidence-based, precision care at scale.”
