Organoids From Breast Cancer Patients Treated With Neoadjuvant Therapy

The aim of this study is to establish patient-derived organoid (PDO) and tumor tissue cultures from breast cancer patients, in order to create personalized, accurate, and reliable preclinical models capable of providing information on the diverse biomolecular portraits of breast cancer. These models may also be used to predict the achievement of pathological complete response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) treatment, study the biological, molecular, genetic, and microenvironmental characteristics of each tumor, and isolate tumor-derived extracellular vesicles from the PDOs and tissues and analyze them as potential biomarkers of response to NAC.
