Cancer organoid is a prevailing in vitro model to study the mechanism of tumorigenesis and serves as a clinically related, easy-to-use tool to test the sensitivity of drugs and immunotherapeutics for cancer treatment. Creative Biolabs has developed a cancer organoid platform, including various cancers, to evaluate CAR‐T cells mediated killing against solid tumors. The patient-derived bladder cancer organoids resemble the heterogeneity and biological characteristics of tumor tissue of origin and can be used to predict CAR-T therapeutic responses in vivo.

Multiple subtypes of bladder cancer organoids consist of a high throughput platform for CAR-T efficacy tests.
Types of bladder cancer and derived organoids

Bladder cancer organoids and CAR-T cells cooperate in the co-culture system to test the response of BCOs to immunotherapies in vitro. Specific killing of CAR-T is assessed using cytotoxic assays and ELISA test of cytokine secretion.
