I put the media tubes into the freezer. Can I still use the media tubes?

No, We will send you another batch of media tubes you could use. Please email us at support@imprimedicine.com or request fresh tubes online via our Vet Portal.

What is the simulated dosing for a certain drug? MTD(maximum tolerated dosing) or metronomic?

Our models don't differentiate between different types of dosing, so they can be viewed as outcomes for standard clinical practice. For instance, if MTD is more common in practice, the models may more closely reflect MTD.

For the blood tube submission– Do you request that on every patient, even if they don't have a leukemic component? And what type of blood tube do you request we send the sample in?

We require at least 2 mL of whole blood in an EDTA-treated tube.

What type of sample is needed – just aspirates and a typical flow sample?

We need about 10 million cancer cells to run the full chemosensitivity panel so we ask that you conduct an aggressive woodpecker style FNA, poking as many nodes as possible and putting the cells into our proprietary media tubes (ensures we receive live cells), then of course we need a whole blood sample (2mL).

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.

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.
