Unmet Need in Cancer Immunotherapy

Despite the progress we’ve made in cancer immunotherapy, response rates continue to remain in the 20 to 30% range. There’s a need for biomarkers that can accurately predict response to treatment.

Understanding Cancer-Immune Biology

Immunotherapy treatments rely on the activation of the immune system to fight and kill tumor cells. The key to understanding more about tumor-immune biology lies in studying the complexity of the tumor microenvironment.

Transforming Your Approach to Cancer Biomarker Discovery

Multispectral Imaging enables the discovery of biomarker signatures from a single FFPE tissue section, while preserving the spatial context of the tumor microenvironment.

Standardization Efforts

The value of Spatial Phenotypic Signatures in translational and clinical research relies on a standardized and reproducible workflow.

MITRE: First Multi-Site mIF Standardization Study

6 leading institutions, across academia and pharma, established the inter- and intra-site reproducibility of the Phenoptics multiplex imaging workflow.

Validating Multiplex Imaging Panels for PD-L1 Testing

Studies by pathologists at Queen’s University show high concordance between DAB IHC and multispectral imaging panels for profiling immunotherapy biomarkers.

Bringing Multiplex Imaging to the Clinic

Dr. Joe Yeong, Immunopathologist at the Singapore General Hospital predicts that multiplex imaging is poised to transform the cancer biomarker landscape.
