Unlocking Immuno-oncology

Immuno-oncology is a transformative field that leverages the power of the body's immune system to fight cancer. The central challenge lies in understanding how to "unmask" tumors that have evolved mechanisms to evade immune attack. Immuno-oncology cell-based assays are essential for studying these complex interactions, bridging the gap between theoretical drug design and clinical application. By providing a platform for early drug discovery and validation, these assays are crucial for identifying promising candidates and de-risking the development pipeline.

Applications of Cell Assay for Drug Discovery

High-throughput screening (HTS) has been widely applied in discovery and drug development, which is a challenging process characterized by expense and time-consuming, full of failures. Cell-based assays have been integrated with HTS technologies, which are unable to reflect the complexity of living systems. To address this problem, in vitro cell culture models are used to get substantive information on various cellular responses to a compound. Combining advanced microscopy with cell-based assays can monitor both spatial and temporal resolution, which has driven the development of HCS technologies. Cell assays can accelerate and enhance the process of drug identification and development to help new therapeutics be brought to market in an efficient manner.

Blew is HCS-compatible, biochemical, and molecular biology-driven assays for drug discovery, which are available at Creative Biolabs.
