Targeted Tissue Proteomic Assays

Expression Pathology is developing targeted, quantitative
mass spectrometry-based assays that can be used to measure
protein expression in standard formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded
(FFPE) tumor samples. The assays include a wide range of drug
target pathway proteins including EFGR, IGF-1R, cMET, cSRC, mTOR,
MEK, and ERK, and their phosphorylation states.

Our assays can be multiplexed and have great potential in drug development, clinical trials and personalized medicine. Measuring protein expression in standard formalin-fixed tissue samples can provide diagnostic and prognostic information to guide treatment decisions.

Enabling Technology Platform

Our development program is based on two proprietary technologies; tissue dissection using our DIRECTOR laser microdissection slides, and the ability to solubilize FFPE tissue using the patented Liquid Tissue MS Protein Prep protocol so the sample can be analyzed using a range of different mass spectroscopy applications.

Explore archival tissue collections for differentially expressed protein biomarkers. EPI's patented technologies work together to enable protein biomarker discovery and validation in the standard form of patient tissue.
