项目摘要

Project Summary We seek to develop robust platforms for capturing, enumerating and analyzing circulating tumor cells and associated cancer cells from the blood of cancer patients. We will leverage our previously developed precisely engineered microfilter platform that allows effective separation and collection of viable CTC from patient blood. In parallel, we have developed novel imaging methods perfectly suited for rapid analyses for circulating tumor cells, clusters and associated cancer cell subtypes (such as Cancer Associated Fibroblasts, or CAF). We propose to integrate these two novel technologies to create a robust diagnostic tool for clinical pathology as well as basic research that enables capture, enumeration, and analyses of circulating tumor cells and associated cancer cells. Our multidisciplinary team proposes the following Specific Aims: 1) Build and validate the technology to rapidly acquire CTC/CAF images using Fourier Ptychographic Microscopy and evaluate the images with a deep learning algorithm 2) Evaluation of the integrated platform for using CTC/CAF in predicting recurrence/survival in early stage breast cancer patients For these studies in early stage breast cancer, we have robust collaborations with industry partners in Circulogix Inc (Microfilter technology for cell capture), ClearBridge Inc. (FPM imaging of the microfilter surface), and Google Software (Deep learning algorithm for analyzing FPM images of microfilter). The ability to reliably and rapidly detect and analyze CTC and associated cancer cells in early stage breast cancer patients would deliver a major new tool for oncology research, a platform for screening of novel drugs, and a critical advance in precision cancer management.

项目概要我们寻求开发强大的平台来捕获、计数和分析循环肿瘤细胞和来自癌症患者血液的相关癌细胞。我们将利用我们之前开发的精确工程微过滤平台，可有效分离和收集患者血液中的活 CTC。与此同时，我们开发了新型成像方法，非常适合循环肿瘤的快速分析细胞、簇和相关的癌细胞亚型（例如癌症相关成纤维细胞，或 CAF）。我们建议整合这两种新技术，为临床病理学创建强大的诊断工具以及能够捕获、计数和分析循环肿瘤细胞的基础研究相关的癌细胞。我们的多学科团队提出以下具体目标： 1) 构建并验证使用傅里叶快速获取 CTC/CAF 图像的技术叠印法显微镜检查并使用深度学习算法评估图像 2）利用CTC/CAF预测早期复发/生存的综合平台评估乳腺癌患者对于早期乳腺癌的这些研究，我们与以下领域的行业合作伙伴建立了强有力的合作： Circulogix Inc（用于细胞捕获的微过滤器技术）、ClearBridge Inc.（微过滤器表面的 FPM 成像）、和 Google 软件（用于分析微过滤器 FPM 图像的深度学习算法）。能够可靠、快速地检测和分析早期乳腺癌中的 CTC 和相关癌细胞癌症患者将为肿瘤学研究提供一个重要的新工具，一个筛选新药的平台，以及精准癌症管理方面的重大进展。
