In this episode, Dr. Radha Krishnan describes three key challenges in immuno-oncology development related to anatomic pathology. Some of the key challenges organizations that support clinical trials I-O drug development see, particularly with the context of companion diagnostics, involves ensuring the sample availability is adequate and appropriate for the different clinical trials, that the assay outcome is useful and the results are relevant for the clinical trials.
It is discussed how having adequacy of tissue samples is one of the most critical components. It's also important that the sites that are sending samples have the ability to process samples in a timely manner, establishing that the fixation and other pre-analytical conditions that influence the outcome of the results are well evaluated. Dr. Krishnan provides a vision that will make the whole process easier for patients and doctors alike.
