Encapsulation of live tumor fragments in Elephas Live Protect preserves the native tumor microenvironment during ex vivo culture
In this white paper, Elephas Biosciences presents data demonstrating that Elephas Live™ Protect, a proprietary hydrogel and element of the Elephas Live™ Platform, preserves features of the native tumor microenvironment (TME) in live tumor fragments (LTFs) during ex vivo culture.
A method for preparing tumor tissues for ex vivo culture that retains T cells within live tumor fragments (LTFs) while preserving tissue viability and T cell function
Traditional tissue preparation methods can disrupt the tumor microenvironment (TME), which poses challenges for characterizing responses to immunotherapy in live tumor fragments (LTFs).
In this scientific poster, Elephas Biosciences presents a method that incorporates automated cutting instruments designed to optimally fragment tumor resections and core needle biopsies (CNBs), and a proprietary hydrogel that supports the TME of LTFs in ex vivo culture.
TechTalk: Improving predictions in immunotherapy treatment
Friday, January 30 at 15:30 GMT | 16:30 CET | 10:30 EST | 7:30 PST
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment, providing durable and even curative responses. However, today there is no reliable way to determine which immunotherapy a cancer patient will respond to with current biomarkers lacking predictive accuracy.
Dr. Hinco J. Gierman, Chief Scientific Officer, Elephas Biosciences, will share the predictive power of the Elephas Live™ Platform. This platform utilizes fresh tumor biopsies that are cut and encapsulated to be assessed for viability, tumor content, and response to immunotherapy over time.
Attend this SelectScience TechTalk, and in just 20 minutes, you will discover how live tumor cytokine profiling can improve decision making and capture data non-destructively all within 72 hours of taking the biopsy.
