Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
All current forms of therapy for tumor patients are essentially based on clinical, genomic or histopathological criteria for the choice of therapy. However, the change in the tissue during therapy is of particular importance for patients, both with regard to the development of resistance and the side effect profile. This applies in particular to immunotherapies and their use in advanced tumor diseases. Preliminary work on the fully human tumor explant model has shown that the use of human donor tissue in the context of a special bioreactor makes it possible to improve the possibilities of predicting and better understanding the mechanism of action of a therapeutic agent. Since there is a considerable need for personalized and thus improved therapy management in the field of oncology, the aim of this study is on the one hand to improve the decisive tissue parameters for the cultivation of human donated material and on the other hand to understand the basic reaction patterns of the tissue to therapies.
