For patients who already have flow cytometry, can you just run the drug sensitivity profile?

Yes, our AI-driven Drug Response Predictions Only (DRP) service is available starting May 2024. This service focuses solely on the drug prediction aspect, providing you with insights without the flow cytometry and PARR results.

If the media tubes are damaged or missing something in the packaging can we get a replacement?

Please request fresh tubes on our website (Vet Portal > Request Supplies). If you need to send cells immediately, please use the serum and saline protocol from the CSU Hemapathology Lab. (Click to read more)

I have a patient with likely lymphoma/leukemia. For a blood sample, can I just submit an EDTA blood tube or do I still use the ImpriMed tubes (and if so, how many tubes and is an additional EDTA blood tube still needed with that)?

If the patient is suspected of leukemia, blood collected in the EDTA tube should be fine. If it is lymphoma, we might need FNA from the affected organ/lymph node. We can suggest FNA in ImpriMed media tube (1) and 2ml of blood sample in an EDTA tube.

How much research do you have to support your results?

All of our products are thoroughly validated in-house using clinical outcomes data and we have published multiple peer-reviewed papers demonstrating the efficacy of our predictions (Veterinary Sciences and Veterinary and Comparative Oncology). We have run over 12,000 tests on hematopoietic cells, and over 4,000 canine patients that have benefited from our services. We believe we have more data on canine lymphoma than any other company in the world.

Why should I order ImpriMed services?

ImpriMed offers a unique precision oncology service that helps you to find the best anticancer drugs for your patients. ImpriMed directly tests a panel of commonly used anticancer drugs on your patients’ live cells in our A2LA accredited lab. In addition, we continually collect patient outcomes that are updated via regular follow-up with pet parents. As our database grows, so does the performance of our anticancer drug response predictions and your ability to develop a personalized treatment plan for each pet patient. So, when you order an ImpriMed service, you are actively contributing to our dataset and helping to improve cancer care for your patients and the ImpiMed user community.

Is there a way to cancel the order before it is processed if the patient decides they no longer want the ImpriMed test?

In order to cancel the order, please contact us by sending an email to support@imprimedicine.com.
