Presentations
Analyzing the modeling of T-cell specific immunotherapies
Kiyatec’s innovative ex vivo human tumor models, featuring a combination of tumor cells, stromal cells, and autologous immune cells, serve as a crucial tool in mitigating risks in preclinical immunotherapy development. These models enable the study of T-cell persistence and activity within ex vivo cultures, showcasing their potential utility in assessing T-cell specific therapies, including checkpoint inhibitors, bispecifics, and cellular therapies.
