Kolin C. Hribar, PhD, founded Cypre on the premise that cancer drug discovery and development needed more human-translatable models to predict therapeutic outcomes before the clinic.
With his bioengineering background from UC San Diego and the University of Pennsylvania and Cypre’s exceptional team of engineers and scientists, the company established early relationships with top pharmaceuticals like Genentech and commercialized its platform through the premier CRO, Charles River. Cypre now works with many of the leading biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies around the world.

“We engaged Cypre for multiple studies to first optimize then screen 3D ex vivo PDX models for our immunotherapy research. We were pleased with the results and found the Cypre datasets informative for studying tumor killing, T cell infiltration and activation in the context of the TME. We are happy to continue the relationship with their team.”
Partner with Cypre to co-develop translationally validated, IND-ready insights using our complete 3D tumor organoid platform. From immune profiling to custom panels, we’re built for collaboration.
