Drug Interaction Analysis

Analyze receptor occupancy and pathway modifications from concurrent medications.

Uncertainty Quantification (Validated)

Parameter uncertainty propagated through the full mechanistic model to quantify output variability.

Validated reference results (full mechanistic model)

Functional Monte Carlo, n = 512, plus global Sobol sensitivity (base N = 256; 2,304 evaluations). Seven hormone-layer parameters perturbed uniform ±25% around model nominal and propagated to cycle day 21. Source: ASME V&V 40 Credibility Dossier v1.0, §5 (outputs/uq_montecarlo_v1.0.json, outputs/uq_sobol_v1.0.json).

Output (cycle day 21)Mean 95% CICV
E2 peak (pg/mL)102.8[72.7, 136.4]16.9%
P4 peak (ng/mL)9.33[6.26, 13.29]19.1%
Decidualization0.779[0.703, 0.832]3.9%
Receptivity0.555[0.262, 0.688]19.4%

Most uncertain output: receptivity (CV 19.4%), driven by luteal progesterone — production k_P4_luteal (Sobol ST 0.59) and clearance d_P4 (ST 0.49). Decidualization is well-buffered (CV 3.9%).

Life-stage tissue predictions (validated mechanistic model)

Endogenous baseline at cycle day 21 across the three hormonally distinct life stages (OTA-26-004 §5). Source: outputs/grant_roa_triad_v1.0.json.

Life stagePeak E2 (pg/mL) DecidualizationReceptivity
Reproductive100.60.7800.597
Perimenopause82.70.8560.359
Postmenopause40.00.0080.000

Postmenopausal endometrium shows near-zero receptivity (atrophic, low-estrogen milieu), consistent with physiology. New this build: life-stage parameterization (§5) and toxicity go/no-go scalars (§4.5); see outputs/grant_capability_matrix_v1.0.json.

Therapeutic drug pharmacology (validated mechanistic model)

Competitive receptor binding propagated to tissue outputs (OTA-26-004 Deliverable 1). Values shown baseline → on-treatment at the indicated cycle day. Source: outputs/grant_drug_pharmacology_v1.0.json.

Drug (class), context Receptivity Decidualization Mechanism
Tamoxifen (SERM), reproductive0.60→0.460.78→0.71ERα antagonism at high E2
Tamoxifen (SERM), postmenopauseprolif 0.031→0.042 ↑paradoxical agonism (low E2)
Mifepristone (SPRM antagonist)0.60→0.080.78→0.67PR antagonism collapses receptivity
Leuprolide (GnRH agonist)0.60→0.000.78→0.07flare then ~90% E2 suppression (73→7 pg/mL)
MPA (progestin), proliferative phase0.076→0.086 ↑PR agonism drives decidualization
Letrozole (aromatase inhibitor)0.60→0.570.78→0.77E2 synthesis suppression (73→64 pg/mL)

Tamoxifen's opposite effect at high vs low estrogen (antagonist reproductive, paradoxical agonist postmenopause) emerges from the competitive-binding mechanism, not a hardcoded rule. Research-use, hypothesis-generating; not for clinical decisions.

Sobol Sensitivity (Validated)

Global variance-based total-order sensitivity (ST) for the clinical readout (receptivity) at cycle day 21. Saltelli sampling, Jansen estimator, base N = 256 (2,304 evaluations); bootstrap 95% CI. Source: V&V 40 Dossier v1.0 (outputs/uq_sobol_v1.0.json).

Total-order indices (ST) capture each parameter's full effect including interactions. Receptivity is dominated by luteal progesterone kinetics; estradiol-peak timing (d_E2, t_ovulation) instead governs the E2 output. Full per-output indices are in the Credibility Dossier v1.0.

Spatial Graph Analysis

Spatial zone decomposition of endometrial tissue compartments and pathway scores.

IVF Cycle Optimization

Simulate follicular growth, predict oocyte yield, assess OHSS risk, and compare stimulation protocols using POSEIDON stratification.

Cycle-Phase Inference

Probabilistic posterior over coarse cycle phases from a single serum-style E2/P4 observation (literature-shaped Gaussian likelihoods). Quantifies phase support and ambiguity (entropy) — not histologic ground truth.

Adverse-State Monitor

Scans a literature-shaped simulated hormone trajectory for six adverse states (hypoestrogenic, endometrial atrophy, hyperstimulation, premature luteinization, progesterone resistance, breakthrough-bleeding risk). Research-grade heuristics — not validated for clinical decision-making.

Toxicity Go/No-Go Scalars

The two pre-specified OTA-26-004 Aim-2 acceptance metrics over a longitudinal scenario: (1) sustained proliferation > 0.7 for ≥ 4 consecutive weeks; (2) hyperplasia-prone attractor entry rate (proliferation > 0.7 & WNT > 0.5 & apoptosis < 0.3). Reduced longitudinal surrogate; research-grade hypothesis-generation only.

Life-Stage Comparison (Sex/Age as a Biological Variable)

The same assessment across three hormonally distinct life stages (reproductive, perimenopause, postmenopause), using representative mid-luteal hormones and receptor-baseline scaling. Uses the condition selected above. Receptor scales are research priors (uncalibrated).

Oral PK/PD Time-Course

One-compartment oral pharmacokinetics (first-order absorption/elimination, dose superposition) with an Emax PD bridge to E2/P4. PK priors from published literature. Research-grade.

Drug Scenario Library

34 named clinical regimens with E2/P4 modifier factors, grouped by indication (endometriosis, adenomyosis, fibroids, hyperplasia, cancer, PCOS, RIF, luteal support, thin endometrium, IVF/FET).

Therapeutic Index (Efficacy vs. Adverse Risk)

Research-grade proxy pairing an efficacy axis (proliferation suppression for proliferative disease, or decidualization/receptivity gain for support indications) against residual hyperplasia-prone risk, from applying a regimen's E2/P4 factors. Uses the condition selected above.

Regulatory Status

EndoTwin-W is investigational software undergoing FDA regulatory evaluation.
EndoTwin-W is being evaluated through FDA's Pre-Submission (Q-Submission) program toward De Novo classification. It is not currently cleared or approved by FDA and is provided for research and validation use only.

Legal Basis

Section 3060(a) of the 21st Century Cures Act (Pub. L. 114-255, enacted December 13, 2016) amended Section 520 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 360j) to add subsection (o), which excludes certain clinical decision support software from the definition of a "device" under Section 201(h) of the FD&C Act. Software meeting all four criteria of Section 520(o)(1)(E) is not a medical device and requires no FDA clearance, approval, or registration.

Background: Prior Internal CDS Assessment (Superseded — Now Undergoing FDA De Novo Evaluation)

# Statutory Criterion EndoTwin-W (prior internal assessment) Met?
1 Not intended to acquire, process, or analyze a medical image, a signal from an in vitro diagnostic device, or a pattern or signal from a signal acquisition system. EndoTwin-W accepts numerical laboratory values (glycodelin-A and CA-125 concentrations) manually entered from a standard blood draw report. It does not process medical images, raw IVD instrument signals, or signal acquisition patterns. Yes
2 Intended for the purpose of displaying, analyzing, or printing medical information about a patient or other medical information. EndoTwin-W analyzes and displays patient-specific medical information: Progesterone Resistance Score, pathway disruption profiles, predicted gene expression changes, biomarker assessment, and window-of-implantation timing predictions. Yes
3 Intended for the purpose of supporting or providing recommendations to a health care professional about prevention, diagnosis, or treatment of a disease or condition. EndoTwin-W provides recommendations to OB/GYN physicians regarding endometrial receptivity assessment, progesterone resistance classification, and condition-specific pathway disruptions as a research aid for studying endometrial receptivity. Yes
4 Intended for the purpose of enabling such health care professional to independently review the basis for such recommendations so that it is not the intent that the professional rely primarily on any of such recommendations to make a clinical decision regarding an individual patient. EndoTwin-W displays full mechanistic transparency: individual pathway disruption scores, per-gene predicted expression changes with fold-change magnitudes, underlying biomarker values, radar visualization of pathway contributions, and gap detection analysis. The clinician can independently evaluate the basis for every recommendation and is expected to exercise independent clinical judgment. Yes
Determination: EndoTwin-W is undergoing FDA regulatory evaluation through the Pre-Submission (Q-Submission) program toward De Novo classification. It is not currently cleared or approved by FDA. Pending that evaluation, EndoTwin-W is provided for research and validation use only and is not for clinical decision-making.
