P02.07.B Patient-derived glioblastoma organoids: Elucidating the mechanisms of glioblastoma therapeutic resistance in the context of tumor microenvironment
Abstract:Background
Intratumoral heterogeneity plays an important role in glioblastoma (GB) resistance to standard therapy consisting of irradiation and chemotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ). However, classical in vitro GB models fail to represent the complex cellular composition of tumors in vivo, which hinders relevant examination of GB therapeutic response. To overcome these limitations, we studied the effects of irradiation and TMZ in a novel patient-derived organoid model.
