Our lab tests novel chemotherapy agents for safety and efficacy using a variety of cell-based and animal models of metastatic breast cancer. Novel compounds are first screened in vitro in a dose-dependent manner using live-cell imaging to measure changes in cell growth inhibition, cell viability, colony formation, wound healing, chemotaxis, and spheroid potential. Promising compounds are then moved to tumor-bearing animal models. Our research is currently supported by the NIH, the Department of Defense, and the Louisiana Cancer Research Center (LCRC).
