Immunotherapy
Enhanced T cell engagement and cytotoxic activity of blinatumomab in Mera
Enable safer, faster translation of human-relevant therapies by making predictive 3D organoid models the industry standard for preclinical testing.
Mera™, a flow-based human tissue model, improves prediction of immunotherapy response by capturing dynamic immune-tumour interactions. Using clinically relevant conditions, the platform enables real-time assessment of efficacy and safety, avoiding key limitations of static in vitro systems
Key Findings
>2x
B-cell killing
Highly significant reduction under flow (p<0.001). No significant difference in static conditions (~1.1-fold).
1.7x
LDH release
Increase under flow vs. no-flow. LDH is a well-established marker of immune-mediated cytotoxicity.
~2x
IFN-y and IL-2
Elevation in key T cell activation cytokines. Most pronounced indicators of immune effector function.
4h
Detection window
Increased B-cell killing detected within 4 hours, indicating efficient T cell engagement.
