Organoids

Cancer models your conclusions can rest on


Organoids built for predictive relevance and translational insight

When predictive relevance drives experimental outcomes, start with clinically annotated, patient-derived organoids built for consistent, defensible results. These genomically characterized systems support non-animal research approaches and more accurately reflect disease biology, heterogeneity, and treatment response than conventional models, helping scientists make more confident, defensible decisions in drug development and translational studies.

A Compendium of Next-Generation Patient-Derived Models for Diverse Cancers

ElHarouni D, et al. Nature 2026

Unlock the full complexity of cancer with a next-generation resource of clinically annotated, patient-derived models designed to reflect real tumor biology. Co-authored by ATCC scientists, this publication demonstrates how this powerful framework is advancing precision oncology and enabling more confident, data-driven therapeutic insight.
