Advances in imaging biomarkers: Estimating drug efficacy with tumour growth rate modelling

This whitepaper compares the use of imaging biomarker methodologies such as RECIST 1.1 with novel tumour growth rate (TGR) modelling. Using this methodology eliminates the need for a comparable control arm which can reduce research costs. TGR modelling also more efficiently captures heterogeneous tumour measurements and whole-body tumour burden.
