Abstract Cancer is associated with a high degree of heterogeneity, encompassing both inter- and intra-tumor along considerable variability in clinical response to common treatments across patients. Conventional models for tumor research, such as vitro cell cultures vivo animal models, demonstrate significant limitations that fall short satisfying the research requisites. Patient-derived organoids, which recapitulate structures, specific functions, molecular characteristics, genomics alterations expression profiles primary tumors. They have been efficaciously implemented illness portrayal, mechanism exploration, high-throughput drug screening assessment, discovery innovative therapeutic targets potential compounds, customized treatment regimen cancer In contrast conventional organoids offer an intuitive, dependable, efficient model by conserving phenotypic, genetic diversity, mutational attributes originating tumor.
