VALIDATION OF CELL LINES

Learn how Pharmatest ensured that their cell lines are exactly what they are supposed to be.

Pharmatest Services Ltd is a contract research organization specialized in clinically predictive preclinical efficacy services in the therapeutic areas of oncology and skeletal diseases.

Problem

Pharmatest Services provides preclinical validation services for novel cancer drugs using cell line models. They wanted to make sure that the molecular characteristics of their cell lines matched the expected features after modifications.

Solution

We helped their scientists design and acquire RNA-seq experiments and run genome-wide expression analyses in order to characterize key molecular features in the cell lines.

Outcome

The company can now communicate the validated integrity of the cell lines to their customers, and avoid costly misinterpretations of experiments.

Genevia helped us validate the molecular characteristics of our cell lines. I found the communication between our respective field experts fluent. They are very flexible and professional, and their business is clearly driven by customer’s requirements.
