A screening tool developed in research led at the University of Strathclyde, UK could increase the number of tests on a solid tumour sample by up to 50 times.
The tool is designed for testing at scale the latest immunotherapies, such as Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, which is effective against many haematological cancers but presents challenges when used to treat solid tumours.
Traditional 2D models that are currently used fail to reproduce the complexity of the tumour’s microenvironment, while models based on patients’ tumours are costly and labour-intensive. The Strathclyde…
