Abstract

This paper reports the development of a novel drug testing platform that uses intact tumor tissue in a 96-well, plate- based microfluidic device. This device was reported at μTAS12 [1]. Here, we incorporate a new eulture membrane transfer technique that enables the culture, drug exposure, and post-exposure tissue processing to be separated into three platforms (Fig. la-c). The result of our Tcmozolomide(TMZ) drug testing on Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) xenograft sliccs demonstrate the feasibility of using this platform to identify effective chcmotherapcutic drugs for specific tumors and patients to guide therapeutic decision-making.
