Brief Summary: Development of tools to predict patients chemo-sensitivity and identification of corresponding biomarkers is an urgent challenge for BC patients lacking targeted therapies, such as TNBC, or for patients experiencing relapse after adjuvant chemotherapy or targeted therapies.

The refinement of 3D-cultivation techniques, experienced in the last decade, has allowed cultivation of patients-derived cancer cells in organotypic structures, named patient-derived organoids (PDO), which preserve histologic, genomic and transcriptomic features of primary tumors. PDO allow propagation, pharmacological treatment and genetic manipulation of patients-derived cancer cells in a close to physiology setting, thus representing a promising tool in the development of personalized therapies
Detailed Description: PDO have been shown to efficiently recapitulate ex-vivo the in vivo response to hormonal treatment of BC patients. These observations point to PDO as potential valuable tools for a rapid, personalized prospective evaluation of patient-specific chemo-sensitivity. Moreover, PDO can represent a valuable ex-vivo platform for screening new treatments, or combination of current treatments, in a medium-to-high-throughput fashion. Thus, development of a stable collection of PDO representing the heterogeneity of BC subtypes, including the evolution of recurrent disease, represents an extremely useful resource for both prospective and retrospective studies aimed at understanding the molecular phenotype associated with chemoresistance.
