Feasibility Study for the Generation of Organoids From Male Breast Tumors
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
It is believed that the use of organoids derived from male breast tumors can be of fundamental support for the definition of the molecular mechanisms underlying the onset of the tumor. Furthermore, the development of such preclinical models could be of significant support for the identification of specific personalized and ad hoc therapeutic treatments for male pathology.
