Rapid Microfluidic Formation of Uniform Patient-Derived Breast Tumor Spheroids

Abstract excerpt

Breast cancer is a highly complex, heterogeneous, and multifactorial disease that poses challenges for rapid and efficient treatment and development of personalized therapy. Here, we describe a rapid and reliable method to generate three-dimensional (3D) tumor spheroids in vitro that recapitulate an individual patient's tumor for testing treatments. By employing droplet microfluidics and scaffold materials, tumor...
