The presence of chemo-resistant Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) contribute to tumor propagation, maintenance, and treatment resistance of this difficult to treat disease. We have developed ChemoID, a cytotoxic synergy assay against CSCs that identifies the most effective chemotherapy treatment from a panel of FDA-approved chemotherapies using fresh cancer biopsies.</p><p><strong>Patients and methods: </strong>Ascites or interventional radiology biopsies were collected under physician order from 78 consecutive patients affected by 3<sup>rd</sup> relapsed ovarian cancer.
