Be Careful What You Ask for: Challenges of Predicting Human Clearance for a Low Metabolic Turnover Compound, ELND006

20 Aug 2014

This application note aims to retrospectively evaluate allometry, microsomes, suspended hepatocytes and micropatterned co-cultures of hepatocytes and fibroblasts (HepatoPac) to estimate human CL of ELND006. And characterize the in vitro metabolic profiles of ELND006 generated with the HepatoPac system.

Human HepatoPac™ Kits

Hepregen Corporation

Human HepatoPac™ kits are an ideal way to conduct all your DMPK, Predictive Toxicology & Mechanistic Toxicology applications. Begin dosing as early as 3 days after receiving the kit! Use our Human HepatoPac™ Triple Donor plates for the ultimate in convenience. HepatoPac™ co-cultures derived from 3 independent and highly characterized donors are provided on a single plate (8-wells from each donor).HepatoPac™ kits can be used for any assay that can be run using sandwich, monoculture plates or suspension cultures. Due to the extended in vitro functionality of HepatoPac™ co-cultures, Hepregen kits enable studies such as low turnover clearance or chronic toxicity studies that could not otherwise be performed.Human HepatoPac™ Kits Features: HT-ready format; 24- and 96-well plates Proprietary micropatterened co-culture Superior data for both slowly and rapidly metabolized drugs Culture longevity of up to 4 weeks Kits contain: Human HepatoPac™ Co-Cultures Maintenance Media Application-specific Media and additives Instructions for culture maintenance and application-specific protocols On-site customer training included

Cell-Based AssaysCell-based assays are used to monitor the presence, quantity and activities of a desired cellular analyte including drug molecules or biomarkers. This can reveal information on cell health (apoptosis, cytotoxicity, viability and proliferation assays), cell metabolism, cell migration and cell signaling mechanisms. Find the best cell-based assay products, kits and equipment with our peer reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receiving pricing direct from manufacturers.In VitroIn vitro refers to experiments conducted outside living organisms, often in controlled lab environments such as petri dishes or test tubes. In vitro models are widely used in drug testing, cell biology, and disease research.
