NCI-sponsored orthotopic animal model training program

ORTHOTOPIC ANIMAL MODEL
TUMOR ‘TARGET’
The growth and spread of a tumor involves the cancer cells themselves as well as the environment around them. Crosstalk of tumor and organ microenvironment should be considered for the establishment of right tumor models for the pre-clinical research and evaluation of anti-cancer drugs. Orthotopic tumor models are powerful tools for mimicking the interaction between tumor and organ microenvironment. The organ-specific microenvironment induces tumor growth and specific signatures similar to that of the original tumor.
UNMET NEEDS
1. Limitation in target excavation from discrepancy between preclinical (laboratory) and clinical reality
- Despite of efforts to hasten the process of drug development using innovative technologies, the current efforts still remain to be low in cost effectiveness.
2. Tremendous increase in development cost
- Cost to develop new pharmaceutical drug now exceeds $2.5b
- A benchmark report estimates that the cost of bringing a drug to market has more than doubled in the past 10 years
3. Increase of difficulties in developmental process
- Complexed regimens: change of analogue concept to digital precision medicine
Proposed solution to overcome unmet needs with
New approach with genomics and proteomics driven platform
Platform for Revolutionary Identification & Isolation of Novel Targets, PRIINT™
Cross-species hybridization of microarray experiment (CHME)
RNA
Custom antibody array with experimental sera from mice
IHC analyses with experimental tissues from mice
Patients
tissues & sera
1. Establishment of precise orthotopic animal models
2. Revolutionary identification & isolation of novel targets with tissues from orthotopic animal models by bioinformatics
3. Cross-validation of tumor targets in the experimental animal tissues and human sera/surgical specimens
Confirmed list of novel targets in pancreatic and ovarian cancers;
Expansion to various solid tumors
