Patient-derived tumor organoids to model drug response in gastric cancer

Cell Rep Med. 2024 Jul 16;5(7):101650. doi: 10.1016/j.xcrm.2024.101650.

Abstract

Gastric cancer poses diverse treatment challenges due to its high tumor heterogeneity. Through the use of patient-derived tumor organoid (PDO) models, new research1 has identified genes and molecular signatures that are predictive of chemotherapeutic response, providing valuable insights for clinical management and translational advancements.
