If the blood clots can the ImpriMed test still be run?

Blood clots can prevent our ability to run our tests. Very small clots may not be a problem, but in general, clotted blood is not ideal. That is why we ask that doctors send blood in an EDTA or heparin tube.

I have a leukemia patient. Can you run an assay on blood?

Yes, we do run assays on blood for a leukemia patient. Please send us at least 2 mL of whole blood in an EDTA tube.

What does the ImpriMed Personalized Prediction Profile include?

The Personalized Prediction Profile includes our Immunoprofile report and anticancer drug response predictions generated by artificial intelligence models. The predictions include estimates of both (1) the likelihood of a positive clinical response (partial response/ complete remission) to individual anticancer drugs and (2) the likelihood complete remission after 1 or 2 cycles of CHOP therapy, and the likelihood of early relapse after a successful CHOP regimen. Outcome predictions are currently provided for 13 individual drugs that are commonly used in many first-line and rescue protocols for the treatment of canine lymphoma (including CHOP, LOPP, MOPP, LPP, Tavonea only, etc…). Predictions are included for Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Vinblastine, Prednisone, Rabacfosadine (Tanovea®), L-Asparaginase, Lomustine, Mitoxantrone, Mechlorethamine, Dexamethasone, Chlorambucil, and Melphalan.

What is a drug sensitivity test?

A drug sensitivity test is a lab test that measures how easily cells are killed by a drug.When you order a Personalized Prediction Profile, ImpriMed uses a proprietary high-throughput ex vivo drug sensitivity testing platform to analyze your patient’s live cells. For our canine leukemia and lymphoma service, we expose the cells to 13 different drugs commonly used to treat these diseases: L-Asparaginase, Mitoxantrone, Vincristine, Vinblastine, Doxorubicin, Rabacfosadine (Tanovea®), Chlorambucil, Mechlorethamine, Lomustine, Prednisolone (activated Prednisone), Mafosfamide (activated Cyclophosphamide), Melphalan, and Dexamethasone.-

How much research do you have to support your results?

All of our products are thoroughly validated in-house using clinical outcomes data and we have published multiple peer-reviewed papers demonstrating the efficacy of our predictions (Veterinary Sciences and Veterinary and Comparative Oncology). We have run over 12,000 tests on hematopoietic cells, and over 4,000 canine patients that have benefited from our services. We believe we have more data on canine lymphoma than any other company in the world.
