Clinical Translation of Patient‐Derived Organoids: Perspectives for Personalized Therapy in Cancer

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patient‐derived organoids (PDO) are accelerating precision medicine. These biological platforms allow for the autologous in vitro expansion of material from cancer patients in a considerably short period of time. These three‐dimensional models can faithfully recapitulate aspects of tissue heterogeneity, architecture, and relevant cellular ...
