Oncology Model Options

Immuno-Oncology in vitro Assays

InnoSer offers oncology CRO services using cancer-associated tumor and microenvironment-associated cell lines (human and rodent).

Syngeneic Mouse Models

InnoSer offers contract research services using subcutaneous and orthotopic syngeneic mouse models.

Cell line-derived Xenograft (CDX) Mouse Models

CDX models represent one of the first steps to evaluate the efficacy using in vivo models of human cancer.

Patient-derived organoids (tumoroids)

Access InnoSer’s high-throughput drug screening capabilities. 

Patient-derived Xenograft (PDX) Mouse Models

Recapitulate the tumor and patient heterogeneity using patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse models.

Humanized Mouse Models for Immuno-Oncology Research

Humanized mouse models represent one of the most translationally relevant immuno-oncology tools.

Oncology research with InnoSer

marking of tumor growth using BLI for drug development studies

Powered by imaging capabilities

In vivo imaging (bioluminescence imaging and/or ultrasound) is a valuable tool for collecting mid-study data in animal studies. These non-invasive methods can be applied with high sensitivity and in real-time. With InnoSer’s imaging capabilities, you can now track tumorigenicity, tumor progression, metastasis, tumor volume and quantify your immune cell populations. Read more >>

Histopathology stainings for reclinical cancer research studies testing toxicity of drugs in development

Smart pathological assessment

Enhance the translation value of your cancer research with a histopathological assessment of clinically relevant biomarkers. We can provide insights into the tumor microenvironment, inflammation, and fibrosis thanks to our in-house vetererinary and clinical pathologists. Supported by digital workflows for efficient and accurate results our histopathology services will see your research enhanced through technology. Read more >>

Animal Welfare

The 3Rs impact everything from policy and regulatory change to the development and uptake of new technologies and approaches. This is why Innoser has ongoing commitment and monitoring of these processes. The steps we practice maximize our ability to replace, reduce and refine animal involvement and facilitate our commitment to these principles when it comes to research and drug development.
