Cancer Biology
Platform

Early in our history, BeiGene developed a proprietary cancer biology platform that incorporates improved models and processes for drug discovery into the new world of immuno-oncology and combination approaches to cancer treatment. Our discovery engine addresses the importance of tumor-immune system interactions and the value of primary tumor biopsies in developing new cancer models.

Understanding Cancer to Design Against It

Understanding Cancer to Design Against It

We have built an extensive collection of novel in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo cancer models, in order to better select targets and to screen and evaluate agents that may have significant potential alone or in combination. Our cancer models also integrate elements of the human immune system, allowing us to evaluate potential drug candidates in conditions that approximate a patient’s cancer at the time of treatment. This is particularly significant when drug discovery requires evaluation not only of monotherapies but also multiple combinations and regimens targeting specific mutations while simultaneously immobilizing the defenses cancer cells mount against the human immune system.
