Brenus Pharma and InSphero Have Developed 3D Tumor Spheroids Mimicking in vivo Human Colorectal Cancer Conditions and Confirming STC-1010’s Efficacy19.6.2025 09:15:00 CEST | Press release
Presented at EACR 2025, promising results show the impact of Brenus Pharma and InSphero’s collaboration in advancing translational immunotherapy through scalable 3D tumor models. Brenus Pharma, a French biotech developing next-generation first-in-class immunotherapies, and InSphero, a Swiss leader in 3D cell-based assay technologies, presented promising data at the European Association for Cancer Research 2025 annual congress. These data confirm the use of 3D tumor spheroids for potency testing of STC-1010, Brenus’ lead candidate for colorectal cancer. Funded through the EUROSTARS program, the collaboration led to vitrified 3D colorectal cancer spheroids using tumor cell lines co-cultured with fibroblasts. The vitrification method preserves morphology, stromal integrity, and viability after thawing, enabling realistic evaluation of STC-1010’s therapeutic potential under conditions mimicking in vivo human tumors. Previous studies showed that STC-1010 antigens were effectively processed
