Spatial profiling with clinically characterized tissue
Source clinically annotated FFPE tissue and TMAs from TriStar’s repository for your spatial study. Select the tissue, treatment groups and follow-up relevant to your research, with spatial profiling available as an additional service.
THE INTEGRATED SERVICES APPROACH
Samples, services and pathology expertise through one partner
Repository samples
Selected for your study
- Fewer handoffs
- Spend less time coordinating samples and additional work across providers.
- Pathology-informed decisions
- Connect tissue suitability, assay selection and interpretation.
- Coordinated sample use
- Plan tissue allocation and laboratory work together, with one point of contact.
SPATIAL BIOLOGY
Examine cell populations in their tissue context
Cell identity, location and clinical context
Spatial studies can examine how tumor, immune and stromal cells are organized. Clinically annotated tissue adds the treatment and follow-up information needed to define the study groups.
PROFILING OPTIONS
Add spatial readouts to the selected tissue
REGION-BASED PROFILING
GeoMx digital spatial profiling
Discuss protein or RNA measurements in defined tissue regions. Selected collections offer optional GeoMx datasets, allowing existing characterization to be reviewed before additional work is planned.
TISSUE & PATHOLOGY
Qualification and region selection
Review morphology, the tissue regions of interest and platform-specific quality requirements. Selected materials have RNAscope control scores or RNA DV200 information available.
TISSUE MICROARRAYS
Tissue microarrays for spatial study planning
Explore tissue microarrays (TMAs) for spatial studies. Donor matching and existing spatial data vary by array.
NSCLC with IO follow-up
Second-line immunotherapy follow-up with options for additional molecular datasets.
Pre- / post-treatment NSCLC
Paired pre- and post-treatment tissue from the same donors.
Metastatic prostate cancer
HRPC/CRPC tissue with follow-up. Pre- and post-treatment groups are not donor matched.
