Oncology

Charles River Laboratories has conducted oncology studies in rodents for over 15 years. We utilize isolator technology to maintain each study in a controlled environment, minimizing the biosecurity risk to the immunodeficient animals. Combination treatment regimens with standard chemotherapeutic agents and customer-specific test articles are routinely performed.
