International project delivers hundreds of next-generation models for cancer research
medicalxpress - Ten years and thousands of patient samples later, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) has published its results from the Human Cancer Model Initiative (HCMI) on the development of 665 organoid models of 25 types of cancer that are now available to scienti…
AI Summary: An international consortium released hundreds of patient‑derived tumor models, including a public HCMI set of 665 organoids, creating a living biobank for drug discovery. Labs worldwide now gain access to diverse, next‑generation models to test therapies and probe cancer vulnerabilities — a major boost for preclinical translational work.
