And improved method for anti-cancer drug detection: How tiny tumor models could transform drug testing

A team of researchers from Henan University of Science and Technology have introduced a novel method for improving drug testing for esophageal cancer (EC) using advanced three-dimensional (3D) cell culture technology. The authors created a tumor spheroid model on a chip by using inverse opal hydrogel scaffolds to better mimic the in vivo environment of tumors. This innovative platform enables more accurate assessment of chemotherapeutic agents by simulating the physiological conditions that cancer cells encounter in the body.
