Bio-Plex^® Multiplex Assays

In the rapidly evolving field of cancer research, understanding the complex interplay between tumors and the immune system is essential for developing effective therapies. Bio-Plex Multiplex Immunoassays, for research use only and powered by Luminex xMAP technology, provide a cutting-edge tool for simultaneously measuring multiple immune biomarkers. Learn how these research tools are paving the way for development of personalized cancer treatments in the future.

In December 2022, a groundbreaking law was passed granting the U.S. FDA the authority to consider data from new alternative methods in the preclinical testing phase for new drug development. Among the new methods are 3D cell cultures that mimic human tissues and organs, known as microphysiological systems (MPS). The new law aims to improve clinical outcomes while decreasing reliance on animal testing. In this article, we discuss MPS and review data showing how they can synergize with Bio-Plex Assays.
