Workflow of the next generation of translational cancer research: (A) 3DP of devices for 3DCC using a readily available biocompatible polymer using a fused filament deposition (FFD) printer. (B) Culturing of cancer cells using hanging drop method in 3D printed devices (Q-serts), media change and transfer of spheroid using a standard pipetting robot. (C) 3DBP of spheroids using a common 3D bioprinter and a hydrogel bioink mimicking TME. (D) Extrapolation of findings from bioprinted spheroids’ cultures into rodent models and implantation of 3D printed spheroids into rodents.
