Abstract excerpt
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) presents challenges in detecting somatic mutations due to its complex cellular composition. This study investigated the utility of patient-derived organoids (PDOs) to overcome these obstacles and enhance somatic mutation identification. Surgically resected PDAC tumors and their paired PDOs from 21 patients were examined. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) of tumor tissue,...
