About

The study aims to establish an organoids platform and apply them to screen drugs for advanced/recurrent/metastatic colorectal cancer patients.

Full description

The study was designed as a prospective, observational clinical trial in a single center. We establish organoids derived from patients with advanced/recurrent/metastatic colorectal cancer. Organoids will be validated with a combination of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis and histopathology. Drug screening assay will be performed on organoids with the chemotherapy and targeted agents, and the sensitivity and speciality will be compared with the clinical practice.

Enrollment: 30 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 70 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Patients voluntarily participated in the study and signed informed consent;
2. ECOG score 0~2;
3. Expected survival over 6 months;
4. The serum or urine pregnancy test must be negative within 7 days before enrollment for the women of childbearing age who should agree that contraception must be used during the trial;
5. CBC: Hb≥70g/L、WBC≥3.5×109/ L 、ANC≥1.5×109/L、PLT≥80×109/L；
6. Serum ALT≤2×UL, AST≤2×ULN; Serum creatinine≤1.5×ULN；
7. Colorectal cancer was unresectable and confirmed as adenocarcinoma by histopathology. Patients have no significant symptoms in the primary lesion (no bleeding, perforation and obstruction in the primary focus). Besides, the carcinoma is potentially resectable but the patient refuses surgery;
8. Patients can comply with the research scheme according to the judgment of the researcher.
