LASER SCANNING CYTOMETRY MEDIATED ANALYSIS OF THERAPEUTIC EFFICACY IN TUMORS

摘要

This invention describes the use of a laser scanning device, for example a laser scanning CYTOMETRY (LSC), with a double-fluorescent labeling technique as a quantitative method that can be used to objectively and accurately measure endothelial cell death, endothelial tumor cell death and blood vessel density of tumor tissue. These parameters can be used as markers of efficacy in tumors treated with anti-angiogenic or traditional therapies and can distinguish patients who respond to these drugs from those who do not.
