Expanding access to precision cancer prevention, early detection & treatment. Scaling CancerIQ’s engineering structures to double down on security, improve loading times, and ensure sustainable code quality.

The Partner

CancerIQ is a US-based medical startup that saves lives by identifying cancer early. CancerIQ is the only cancer-focused precision health platform that empowers healthcare providers to detect cancer earlier and prevent it altogether across all patient populations. Integrated directly into real-time EHR workflows, CancerIQ makes it easy to gather comprehensive patient data, automatically map it to the latest evidence-based guidelines, and expand access to personalized care plans, cutting-edge clinical solutions, and genomic innovations.

They serve over 200 clinical locations throughout the US and have raised over USD 26M, with their latest Series B funding raising over USD 14M.

The Mission

With growth, CancerIQ needed to sustainably scale their engineering structures. Familiar with Panaxeo’s expertise in data-heavy medical software, they found a natural partner to mitigate possible issues in the future.

Given the increased pressure on healthcare systems to safeguard patient information, CancerIQ wanted to take a proactive approach to doubling down on security for their partners. To prevent any potential issues from ever arising, they needed Panaxeo to upgrade their Ruby on Rails environment to the latest version.

SOC 2 compliance, one of their business goals, was tied into this process.
