  • Colorectal Cancer: ML Enhances Cetuximab Response Predictions

    An international collaborative study led by Human Technopole, Candiolo Cancer Institute IRCCS in Turin, the University of Turin, and the Wellcome Sanger Institute in Cambridge (UK) has identified new factors associated with therapeutic response in colorectal cancer. The research has led to the development of a machine-learning model capable of accurately predicting the effects of cetuximab, a drug in clinical use, on different colorectal tumour subtypes. Funded by the AIRC Foundation, the study paves the way to identifying molecular features that could serve as biomarkers for predicting treatment response in patients with this type of cancer.

    A new model system for cortical development in vitro

    Researchers from Human Technopole, the Institute of Molecular Biotechnology and Bicocca University established a method for developing brain assembloids that allows reproducing salient aspects of the antero-posterior polarity of the human cerebral cortex in vitro and opens new possibilities for disease modelling. The study is published in Nature Methods.
