What is included in the ImpriMed Immunoprofile service?

The ImpriMed Immunoprofile service includes both our Flow Cytometry and PARR reports. These comprehensive results can be used to detect the presence of lymphoma or leukemia and determine the disease subtype.

How do vets report back the outcomes to feed back into the AI model? Is this something that can be easily done via the Vet portal?

We usually send you an email asking for patient records about 3-6 months after you receive the final ImpriMed report. Once we receive the record, we input the data into the AI Models, it is not yet something that can be submitted on the Vet Portal.

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 any reason to believe that submitting another sample to you would provide any additional information or possible changes in treatment protocols now that we are almost 4 months into the treatment plan?

We would suggest you submit another FNA and blood samples to us WHEN the patient's lymphoma relapses. Relapse of lymphoma means that the cancer develops a resistance to certain chemo drugs in use. When this happens, the relapsed cancer cells are usually different from the ones investigated in the naive status, which led to different drug response predictions to the tested drugs. Therefore, it would be better to get new tumor samples and find out what are the new preferred drugs and which of the used drugs still remain effective or became resistant for the relapsed lymphoma. However, the best scenario is to maintain clinical remission for as long a period of time so that you don’t have to order another service from us! If a second service is needed, we offer a 50% discount for returning patients.
