While patients are treated in a platform trial, their tumour cells grow in a dish and are tested against dozens of drug pairs. The pairs that win in the dish become the next arms.
Co-clinical organoid programmes (for example in pancreatic and colorectal cancer) have tested whether dish responses predict patient responses. The proposal inverts the use: a platform trial's organoid bank becomes a combination discovery engine, testing hundreds of pairs on the same tumours that are being treated, so the next arm is chosen from data on the trial population itself rather than on generic cell lines.
