Discussion
Organoid technology has advanced significantly in recent years. However, current cancer organoid methods involve creating 3D tumor tissue from 2D cancer cells or cell clusters, primarily for cancer research purposes aimed at investigating related molecular and cellular mechanisms of tumor development. These methods are research-driven, not tailored towards clinical applications, and cannot provide personalized information for individual patients. PSO filled the gap of clinic-driven and time-saving method for the personalized therapies selecting to the cancer patients.
Methods
Utilizing the new organoid technology by specially dissolving the mesenchyme in tumor tissues acquired from cancer patients, we realized the work of creating patient-specific organoids (PSO) within one day.
Results
PSO properties reflect those of its respective original in vivo tumor tissue and can be utilized to perform various in vitro drug sensitivity tests to identify the most effective clinical treatment for patients. Additionally, PSO can aid in assessing the efficacy of immune cell therapies.
