PDX models are important preclinical tools to develop effective and safe therapeutics that combat cancer. Drug developers can utilize PDX models to target patient tumors with specific oncogene profiles. Our PDX models are significantly more accurate in predicting clinical efficacy than other more conventional approaches. This predictive accuracy helps our clients develop successful drug candidates by providing a more accurate assessment of therapeutic efficacy, thereby saving our client companies time and resources.

With Invivotek clients receive a boutique experience with highly skilled experts customized for their study.

    Our unique collections of patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models used to evaluate safety and efficacy include:

    • Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) Pancreatic Cancer PDX Collection - in vivo screening for drug efficacy, tumor kinetics and animal survival studies
    • Gastrointestinal (GI) PDX Collection (Esophageal, Gastric, Colorectal and liver cancer models) - histological analysis and SOC studies
    • Lung Cancer, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), Small Cell Lung cancer (SCLC) and Mesothelioma PDX Collection - WES - mutational and RNA-seq gene expression analysis for model selection
    • Lymphoma PDX Collection – SOC studies, subcutaneous (SQ) and disseminating implantation studies
    • Bladder Cancer PDX Collection – application of PDX models for immune-oncology
    • Radiation Therapy Core –RT/drug combination studies with combinations of chemotherapies, targeted agents, and immune-oncology drugs with whole body and focal radiation therapy

    Custom Models

    NexusPharma offers to create PDX models based on the specific customer request. These models might be developed on exclusive and nonexclusive basis from primary and metastatic lesions with regard to patient ethnicity, medical history and treatment protocols.
