ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method of screening chemotherapeutic agents in vivo. The method comprises implanting into a laboratory animal a biocompatible, semi-permeable encapsulation device containing a target cell-line, treating the laboratory animal with a test agent, then evaluating the target cells for reaction to the test agent.
