Fig. 2

Illustrates the clinical validity results for PDOs as a predictive biomarker for treatment response (dark red: significant correlation and/or predictive value found, pink: trend for correlation or predictive value found, blue: no correlation and white: not tested), with the size of the circle representing the patient cohort size, specified per treatment and tumour type (y-axis) and ex vivo drug response parameter (x-axis).
