Multi‑omics tumor profiling for oncology drug development.

Decode functional tumor biology to advance oncology drug development.

Cancer is driven by dynamic molecular programs that evolve across disease stages and in response to therapeutic intervention. While genomic data reveals mutational potential, it does not fully capture how tumors function, adapt, or respond to treatment in patients.

Sapient’s multi‑omics tumor profiling services enable oncology teams to directly measure the proteins, metabolites, lipids, and immune signals that reflect active tumor biology. By integrating these orthogonal molecular layers with clinical context, we help you uncover actionable targets, develop robust biomarkers, and stratify patients with greater confidence across discovery, translational, and clinical development.

Key oncology R&D questions we can help you answer:

Which pathways are functionally active in my tumor samples?

What targets are both actionable and biologically relevant in human tumors?

How do tumors metabolically and immunologically adapt to therapy?

Which molecular features best predict response, resistance, or progression?

Target discovery, prioritization & validation.

Rapidly identify disease‑modifying, druggable targets – including on the tumor surface proteome – with broad, direct measure of proteins and pathway activity across >10,000 proteins per tumor sample.

Biomarker discovery & translational validation.

Discover biomarkers linked to tumor biology, therapeutic response, and resistance using integrated proteomic, metabolomic, lipidomic, and/or cytokine data to complement genomic insights.

Tumor subtyping for patient stratification.

Uncover biologically meaningful tumor subtypes by integrating molecular profiles with clinical and phenotypic features – for stratification rooted in functional biology rather than single markers.

Mechanistic insights to map response & resistance.

Characterize target engagement as well as protein networks driving immune activation or suppression and therapeutic resistance mechanisms.
