Ex Vivo Tumor Culture Systems for Functional Drug Testing and Therapy Response Prediction
27 Mar 2017
Abstract excerpt
Optimal patient stratification is of utmost importance in the era of personalized medicine. Prediction of individual treatment responses by functional ex vivo assays requires model systems derived from viable tumor samples, which should closely resemble in vivo tumor characteristics and microenvironment. This review discusses a broad spectrum of model systems, ranging from classic 2D monolayer culture techniques...
