Abstract
Drug sensitivity profiling in patient-derived tumor models offers new hope for improving outcomes in cancers lacking effective therapies. Al Shihabi et al.1 demonstrate that short-term cultures from bone and soft tissue sarcomas enable clinically meaningful screening of multiple drugs and combinations, marking a significant advance in personalized care for these high-risk diseases.
期刊介绍:
Cell Stem Cell is a comprehensive journal covering the entire spectrum of stem cell biology. It encompasses various topics, including embryonic stem cells, pluripotency, germline stem cells, tissue-specific stem cells, differentiation, epigenetics, genomics, cancer stem cells, stem cell niches, disease models, nuclear transfer technology, bioengineering, drug discovery, in vivo imaging, therapeutic applications, regenerative medicine, clinical insights, research policies, ethical considerations, and technical innovations.
