The aim of ExviTech© Platform this study is to determine the ability of the Vivia’s novel ex vivo drug sensitivity platform Exvitech analyzing leukemic cell death to predict the CR rates after Robotic Sample Automated FCM BeckmanCoulter Cyan Flow Proprietary Activity Base Bioinformatics Results induction chemotherapy with cytarabine (Ara-C) and idarubicin (Ida) in 1st line AML. Preparation Based Screening Cytometer Analysis Software + Clinical Info Eight different concentrations of each Whole sample vs. Isolated Leukocytes: A.

The Spanish centers from the PETHEMA group. Marrow samples were collected at diagnosis, sent to the Vivia laboratories, and incubated for 48 hours in whole max concentration used is listed isolated leukocytes and whole sample. samples in well plates containing Ara-C, Ida, or the combination Ara-C + Ida, each at 8 different concentrations to calculate dose responses. Annexin V-FITC Data, from sample 6 below, displays a log was used to quantify the drug-induced apoptosis. Pharmacological responses are calculated using pharmacokinetic population models.

The EC50 (y-axis) of the B CYTARABINE 150µM C whole sample and the isolated leukocyte resistant. Patients dying during induction response assessment were non-evaluable. The correlation between the pharmacologic parameters and the clinical IDARUBICIN 1.5µM D response was modeled using a generalized additive model with a logit link and a binomial distribution for residuals. Kernel density estimates were then used FLUDARABINE 127.5µM fraction from 9 patient samples with E MITOXANTRONE to plot empirical probability density functions of the model fitted values in the response scale for both groups. Their separation was quantified as the area 10µM cytarabine. C.

Screening Setup and Workflow Data Analysis: performed using the Results: 199 patient samples were used to calculate the dose response curves for Ara-C alone, Ida alone, and synergism of the Ara-C plus Ida combination.

The area under the corresponding ROC curve was 0.853 (0.773, 0.933) and the classification probabilities for the optimal cut point, expressed as Sample Validation/ Cell parameter (fig.4) computation of the percentages, were 81% (64% to 91%) and 80% (69% to 88%) for sensitivity and specificity, respectively. Results are shown in Figure 6; sixty-nine patients (69%) Count Apoptotic achieved CR after Ida + Ara-C, and the remaining 31 (31%) were resistant.
