Title: | NEN in a dish: A patient-derived organoid biobank illuminates potential novel therapeutic opportunities for neuroendocrine neoplasms |
Abstract: | Neuroendocrine neoplasms are rare cancers with limited treatment options and preclinical models. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Dayton et al. establish a patient-derived tumor organoid biobank encompassing pulmonary low-grade neuroendocrine tumors (LNETs) and high-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas (LCNECs), identifying novel biomarker-dependent therapeutic vulnerabilities using niche perturbation and drug response assays. © 2023 Elsevier Inc. |
