Predict progression risk and triplet therapy benefit in mHSPC.

Precision care in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer

Favorable vs Unfavorable Risk

Stratify risk based on tumor biology, independent of traditional clinical factors, to guide treatment intensity.

Chemotherapy Benefit

Avoid overtreatment by identifying the mHSPC patients likely to benefit from the addition of docetaxel to ADT + ARPi.

Developed and validated in over 1,000 patients from multiple prospective randomized controlled trials.
Fast results in 2–3 days from receipt of existing specimen, with no additional procedures required.

Vesta is designed to guide personalized care decisions for patients with GU cancers.

Our Computational Histology Artificial Intelligence (CHAI) platform uses standard pathology slides to purpose-build biomarkers that solve real clinical challenges. Results are delivered in days, not weeks, for informed, efficient care.

Built on Biology.

Novel Biomarkers

Valar Labs’ research team has developed and validated multiple unique Vesta biomarker signatures with data from thousands of patients with bladder and prostate cancers using histology features.

Expertly Trained AI

Valar Labs’ board-certified pathologists created 500,000+ annotations of tumors and their microenvironment to train our Computational Histology Artificial Intelligence (CHAI) platform, grounding the technology in biology.

Fast, H&E-Based Testing

Leveraging existing tumor specimens, first-of-its-kind AI analyzes H&E pathology slides and returns actionable results in days for timely treatment decisions.

Frequently asked questions about Vesta

What is Vesta Prostate Risk Stratify?

Vesta Prostate Risk Stratify is an AI-powered pathology test that assesses prognosis and predicts benefit of triplet therapy in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). It identifies patients most likely to benefit from intensified treatment based on disease biology, going beyond traditional clinical variables.

What specimen is required?

The test requires an H&E pathology slide—the most recently available tissue representative of the highest Gleason grade. Acceptable tissue sources include prostate, lymph node, or bone. Valar Labs leverages existing tumor specimens, so no additional biopsy is needed.

How long does it take to get results?

Expect results within 2–3 days of sample receipt. Reports are delivered via the secure online portal, and your clinic team is alerted when results are ready.

How do I order a test?

Your clinic team submits basic patient information via our secure online portal. Valar Labs then coordinates directly with pathology to request the specimen. No complex paperwork is required.

What does the report tell me?

The report classifies patients as Favorable or Unfavorable Risk. Patients classified as Unfavorable Risk benefited from treatment with triplet vs doublet therapy; those with Favorable Risk disease did not. This helps guide personalized treatment intensification decisions.

What technology powers Vesta?

Vesta is built on Valar Labs’ Computational Histology Artificial Intelligence (CHAI) platform, trained on 500,000+ expert pathologist annotations. The platform analyzes H&E pathology slides using novel biomarker signatures validated with data from thousands of patients.

Is there clinical evidence supporting Vesta?

Yes. The Vesta Prostate Risk Stratify biomarker signature was developed and validated using data from multiple pivotal prospective randomized controlled trials.
