AI Technical Summary
Current in vitro models for investigating and treating cancer and immune diseases lack the representation of multiple cell types, particularly the interaction between cancer organoids and immune cells, limiting their accuracy and effectiveness in replicating patient physiology.
Development of tumouroid co-cultures comprising immune cells and tumour epithelial cells, prepared using specific culture media with IL-2, to replicate patient-specific interactions and test candidate agents or therapies for efficacy and safety.
The method enables high-throughput screening of candidate agents for treating cancer and immune diseases by accurately mimicking patient-specific immune responses, enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of treatment regimens.
