Advances of Patient-Derived Organoids in Personalized Radiotherapy.

ABSTRACT: Patient-derived organoids (PDO), based on the advanced three-dimensional (3D) culture technology, can provide more relevant physiological and pathological cancer models, which is especially beneficial for developing and optimizing cancer therapeutic strategies. Radiotherapy (RT) is a cornerstone of curative and palliative cancer treatment, which can be performed alone or integrated with surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or targeted therapy in clinical care. Among all cancer therapies, RT has great local control, safety and effectiveness, and is also cost-effective per life-year gained for patients.
