apceth and Indivumed to Develop Biomarker Platform for Targeted Cellular Therapies
Since biomarkers for cell and gene therapeutics are not yet available and cancer is still a growing medical problem worldwide, significant demand for an adequate and reliable biomarker platform exists.
A special analytical platform for cancer tissue allows Indivumed to identify and validate protein biomarkers and targets with extremely high reliability in terms of their clinical application. One of Indivumed’s strengths is analyzing cancer pathway molecules for predicting drug response. apceth wants to make use of Indivumed’s highly regarded tumor tissue bank and its expertise in tissue-based biomarker discovery and validation. Both companies believe that the combination of apceth’s therapeutic approach and Indivumed’s biomarker platform has the potential to drive future cancer therapeutics and pharmaceutical innovation, thereby making the promises for personalized medicine a reality.
