Join this 41-minute webinar presented by Dr. Marten Hornsveld and Dr. Nataliia Beztsinna to explore the suppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) through in vitro assay analysis. Discover how the cancer immunity cycle involves sequential steps leading to effective T cell-mediated tumor eradication, and learn why many steps in this cycle can be disrupted, allowing tumors to evade immune surveillance and response. Examine the critical role of tumor microenvironment compartments in clinical responses and explore ex vivo patient-derived tissue technologies that maintain the native TME for pre-clinical testing. Delve into complex in vitro models utilizing human stromal and immune co-cultures, and understand the advantages of high-content imaging (HCI) for quantifying intact tumor biology. Gain insights into developing immunotherapeutics with more durable responses by understanding the cancer immunity cycle as a whole and the mechanisms operating at each step, with opportunities to ask questions during the live Q&A session.
