Patient-Matched Organoid Drug Screens
The University of Wisconsin Precision Medicine Molecular Tumor Board assesses treatment options for patients state-wide. These samples are also used to screen drugs in patient-derived cancer organoids using changes in organoid diameter and changes in metabolism measured with autofluorescence microscopy. Combined metrics of organoid diameter and metabolism provide a sensitive method to predict patient treatment responses.
