ASSOCIATED RESEARCH LABS
Sacher Lab
ADRIAN G SACHER, MD, MMSc, FRCPC
Assistant Professor
Staff Oncologist
Clinician Investigator
FACULTY PAGE
Lab focus
(i) The development of novel humanized mouse PDX models to accurately recapitulate complex human tumor immune interactions
(ii) Understanding the role of novel immune cell populations including innate-like T-cell and myeloid populations in modulating anti-tumor immunity and microbiome
(iii) Utilizing cfDNA and soluble biomarkers to predict response and resistance to novel immunotherapies in solid tumors.
Emphasis on the development of novel immunotherapeutics and adoptive cell therapy in solid tumors, understanding mechanisms of acquired and primary resistance to immunotherapy, and identification of novel biomarkers for these agents.
