Individual drug response
 

Hi all,
Now reseachers report that they have developed a preclinical drug test platform that would enable them to analyse tumour tissue for individual patient drug responses on the molecular level.

So far they only study solid tumors but the method could probably soner or later be used for hematological cancers too.

Rather than use tissues from other body organs, this test uses tumor tissues.

What tissues would they test to help predict effective treatments for bone marrow failure?

Hi Niel,
Perhaps stem cells?
