Clinical Trials Imaging Innovator Yunu Raises Oversubscribed Funding Round Led by Spring Mountain Capital
Investment is aimed at accelerating Yunu's pharma sponsor and site network growth.
CARY, NORTH CAROLINA / ACCESS Newswire / April 16, 2025 / Yunu, provider of transformative clinical trials imaging workflow solutions, secured an investment led by Spring Mountain Capital, affirming Yunu's position as an emerging category leader and proven innovator within the clinical trial imaging market. Yunu's platform delivers next-generation trial imaging workflow and ensures fast delivery of operational and clinical insights to sponsors.
'At Spring Mountain Capital, we look to invest in only the strongest teams that have built truly transformational healthcare software solutions. Yunu solves a primary challenge for trial sponsors who need to accelerate therapy development timelines and conduct more trials, in more places. With imaging becoming an increasing obstacle for everyone involved, we are proud to invest in Yunu and believe they are best positioned to solve these issues at scale and emerge as the new technology-forward industry leader,' said Jamie Weston, Managing Director.
Imaging endpoints play a critical role in more than 90% of oncology trials, informing crucial efficacy and safety decisions. However, published data reveals that imaging error rates between 25-50% at leading cancer centers can add up to $5m in unnecessary costs and 200 days of avoidable delay in Phase II trials alone1. Yunu addresses this industry-wide accuracy crisis by serving as the source data system, reducing imaging errors, and delivering results to sponsors in real-time at a lower cost. Yunu eliminates repetitive manual tasks, geographic limitations, disparate software systems, and paper processes with a single, streamlined cloud software platform that makes information accessible to anyone, anywhere.
'At Yunu, we are driving end-to-end imaging workflows that offer unprecedented flexibility, accuracy, and value to sites and sponsors alike,' said Jeff Sorenson, Co-founder & CEO of Yunu. 'We are delighted to partner with Spring Mountain Capital on this next phase of growth and welcome Jamie Weston as the newest member of our board of directors.'
Today, Yunu serves as the trial imaging platform across all oncology clinical trials at more than 25% of the NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers in America and manages over 5,000 active oncology trials sponsored by over 400 pharma companies. Yunu will be demonstrating its capabilities at upcoming industry meetings, including:
