Background

Even though many cancer immunotherapies offer fresh hope for cancer patients, only a small portion of cancer patients can be cured by immunotherapies. New immunotherapies need to be explored urgently. For a potential drug candidate, safety and efficacy data need to be evaluated before exposure to humans. To assess the antitumor efficacy in animal models, specific oncology efficacy models need to be established.

What We Can Offer

As an end-to-end solution provider and concentrated CRO in cancer immunotherapy discovery and development, Creative Biolabs offers a comprehensive suite of validated oncology in vivo models for our clients to advance their preclinical development projects in a cost-effective and timely manner. We are committed to helping you choose the most appropriate efficacy model, design studies, and screen assays matched to your drug candidates, including checkpoint inhibitors, co-stimulatory agonists, viruses, therapeutic engineered immune cells, cytokines, and antibodies.

Immuno-Oncology Animal Models

These are specialized models essential for evaluating agents that target the immune system to fight cancer. They include syngeneic and human immune component models, focusing on the dynamic interplay between the drug, the tumor, and immune effector cells.

Syngeneic Models

Utilize immunocompetent murine host mice and mouse-derived tumor cells. They are fast, cost-effective, and possess an intact, fully functional murine immune system, making them essential for initial T-cell engager, checkpoint inhibitor, and vaccine evaluations.

Learn More →

Humanized Models

These models are reconstituted with human hematopoietic stem cells or peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), resulting in functional, mature human immune system components (T cells, B cells, NK cells).

Cell Line Derived Xenograft (CDX) Models

Involve transplanting established human cancer cell lines into immunodeficient mice. They offer fast, highly reproducible, and cost-effective initial efficacy screening and single-target MOA confirmation, serving as a reliable foundational screen for many compounds.

Database of CDX Models

Creative Biolabs maintains an extensive, validated database of hundreds of CDX models spanning multiple cancer types, each meticulously characterized for genetic mutations (e.g., BRAF, KRAS, EGFR) and protein expression.

Patient Derived Xenograft (PDX) Models

These models involve the direct transplantation of tumor tissue fragments from a source into immunodeficient mice. PDX models meticulously maintain the original tumor's genomic, histological, and molecular characteristics and tumor heterogeneity.

DCs-Involved Immuno-Oncology Models for In Vivo Testing

Specialized human immune component models focused on the function of dendritic cells (DCs). These are utilized for targeted in vivo testing of therapeutics designed to modulate or exploit the DC population for enhanced anti-tumor immunity.

Macrophage-Involved Immuno-Oncology Models for In Vivo Testing

Custom models designed to assess therapeutic agents that modulate macrophage function. These are essential for evaluating agents whose efficacy relies on reprogramming the tumor microenvironment (TME) or leveraging phagocytosis (ADCP).

FAQs

How do Creative Biolabs' PDX models offer higher predictive accuracy compared to traditional CDX models?

Our PDX models are sourced and maintained to preserve the tumor's original heterogeneity, stroma, and complex architecture - features often lost in long-term cell lines. This better recapitulation of the tumor microenvironment means that efficacy data is far more relevant to compound outcomes. We encourage you to discuss your specific tumor type with our preclinical strategy team for tailored PDX options.

What type of data will I receive if I use your service for late-stage validation?

You will receive a fully integrated package, including detailed tumor volume and survival curves, full-color histology slides, and comprehensive molecular data (e.g., flow cytometry results on immune cell infiltration, and spatial transcriptomics analysis). This integrated approach answers not just if the drug works, but how and why, providing the evidence needed for advancing compound development.
