PRECLINICAL EFFICACY · 3D BIOIMAGING

From cell-based and in vivo efficacy
to tissue-level 3D quantification

LEA BIO combines in vitro efficacy, in vivo pharmacology and histopathology with tissue-clearing 3D bioimaging and AI quantification when advanced spatial evidence is needed. We connect early candidate screening with tissue-level evidence in one expandable research workflow.

FROM EFFICACY TO 3D EVIDENCE

Integrated nonclinical support,
connected stage by stage

We begin with cell-level responses, extend into animal models and tissue analysis, and add 3D spatial evidence when the research question calls for it.

Services can be selected individually or connected by development stage. Following a preliminary review of the model, sample, target and desired outputs, we recommend a suitable study design.

This is a nonclinical research support service; results should not be directly interpreted as clinical efficacy in humans.

INTEGRATED NONCLINICAL SUPPORT

Start with the evaluation you need
and extend to 3D evidence

Initial focus areas include oncology, kidney function and toxicity, and natural or functional materials. Detailed scope is determined after reviewing the objective and model.

01

In Vitro Efficacy

Study-purpose endpoints may include cell viability, candidate responses, mechanism-related readouts and biomarkers.

02

In Vivo Pharmacology

Animal models, dosing conditions, comparison groups and efficacy endpoints are planned around the research objective.

03

Histopathology & Biomarkers

Tissue-level changes and target proteins are stained, imaged and quantitatively compared across groups.

04

3D Bioimaging & AI

Tissue clearing, 3D imaging and AI-assisted quantification reveal spatial changes in cells, vessels and targets.
