Moffitt researchers use single-cell imaging & math models to find effect drug properties

(H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute) Drug therapies that target a specific molecule have changed the way patients are treated for cancer and greatly improved survival rates. However, some patients do not respond to these therapies because the drug is not reaching the tumor cells effectively. In a new study published in Scientific Reports, Moffitt Cancer Center researchers combined single-cell imaging of cancer cells in mice with mathematical modeling to determine which drug charac...
