The role of PDOs as preclinical models in gene editing for guiding personalized treatment

Vivek Subbiah, Chief of Early-Phase Drug Development at the Sarah Cannon Research Institute, shared an article by Le Tong on LinkedIn:

“Patient-derived organoids in precision cancer medicine was published in MED at Cell Press journals.

  • Organoids are three-dimensional (3D) cultures, normally derived from stem cells, that replicate the complex structure and function of human tissues.
  • This review covers the role of PDOs as preclinical models in gene editing, molecular profiling, drug testing, and biomarker discovery and their potential for guiding personalized treatment.”
