Immuno-Oncology: 3 Strategies for Applying Humanized Models

Presenter: Dr. Jayant Thatte, Crown Bioscience
Dr. Jayant Thatte, Crown Bioscience Inc webinar

The evaluation of human specific immunotherapeutics is hampered by a lack of preclinical oncology models which feature a functional human immune system. With the progression of humanization protocols, it has become possible to successfully reconstitute functional human immunity in mice. These humanized mice can be combined with human cancer cell lines or patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models for the assessment of agents on human tumors within human immunity.

To unlock the full potential of these complex models a clear understanding of the humanization process, and of the features and limitations of humanized mice platforms, is required. In this webinar, Dr. Thatte reviews currently available humanized models and will discuss the application of each model to preclinical immuno-oncology drug development.

Watch This Webinar To:

  • Interrogate different immune system humanization strategies
  • Understand the pros and cons of each humanized model
  • Explore three (3) case studies for the application of humanized models in cancer pharmacology
