Predicting Response to Immunotherapy From Analysis of Live Tumor Biopsies
Elephas
Summary
This study will collect tumor specimens with correlated clinical and demographic data from patients who are undergoing a biopsy or similar procedure to obtain tumor tissue as a normal course of their medical management or diagnostic work-up for suspected or confirmed cancer.
Description
Elephas is researching mechanisms of cutting, sorting and imaging tumors that leave the 3D tumor microenvironment (TME), including its immune cells, intact. This allows qualitative and semi-quantitative identification and characterization of the ex vivo response to exposure of potential immunotherapy. The ex vivo response data will then be compared to the clinical real world response data to inform development efforts. This study will collect tumor specimens from patients with suspected or confirmed cancer. These specimens, along with clinical data and genomic data obtained as part of a patie…
