A Patient-Derived Ex Vivo Tissue Model of Cholangiocarcinoma Using Precision-Cut Tissue Slices

Background & Aims: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is an aggressive malignancy with poor five-year survival. Improving outcomes requires preclinical models that faithfully recapitulate the native tumour microenvironment. Precision-Cut Tissue Slices (PCTS) retain in-vivo architecture and represent a promising candidate. We aimed to establish a patient-derived PCTS model of CCA, characterise its response…
