"We are very pleased with the performance of the Opal assay, particularly its ability to compare the interaction of up to 6 phenotypic and functional markers on a single slide of tissue. The power and prognostic value of such immune activity assessments in the area of cancer was initially established by the Immunoscore [ www.immunoscore.org ], and we believe the Opal assay represents an important evolution of that work," said Bernard A. Fox, Ph.D., Harder Family Endowed Chair for Cancer Research, Member and Chief, Molecular and Tumor Immunology, Earle A. Chiles Research Institute, Providence Cancer Center; a world-renowned translational cancer immunotherapist; a founding member of the Immunoscore steering committee [ http://www.ohsu.edu/xd/education/schools/school-of-medicine/academic-programs/graduate-studies/faculty/grad-studies-faculty.cfm?facultyid=104 ]. "I am looking forward to continued collaboration with Peregrine to further optimize and validate this assay to improve our understanding of immune infiltrate in tumors thereby facilitating the rational design and use of bavituximab in combination with novel and standard therapies."
