INOVOTION is a biotech company (spin-off from Grenoble-Alpes University) which developed a unique in vivo technology dedicated to efficacy and toxicity evaluations for oncology and immuno-oncology treatments.
This unique platform provides early analysis of drug candidates from small molecules to biologics, before the classical preclinical stage. By eliminating low-value molecules early, INOVOTION accelerates the drug discovery process, increases the R&D productivity, and reduces its costs.

 

INOVOTION built this xenograft model using chicken embryo because it has tremendous benefits: fast, robust, affordable, and predictive. These in vivo assays will save time and give a clear competitive advantage to public and private researchers.

 

This next generation of in vivo efficacy and toxicity tests covers fours main aspects:

. Efficacy assays for anti-cancer treatments including antibodies and immune-checkpoints
. Early Toxicity assays for drug candidates
. Target Validation in oncology
. Multi-Cancer Screening to (re)positioning a treatment

Prof. Jean Viallet, Scientific Director, will present you this unique approach during this scientific conference.

 

 “We help chemists and biologists from Universities, Institute, Hospital and Companies to validate a target and/or develop treatments by getting them through in vivo evaluation, while staying within their budget. Our innovative technology allows rapid Go/No Go decisions.” Prof. Jean Viallet.
