Metastasis is responsible for most cancer-related deaths. Different cancers have their own preferential sites of metastases, a phenomenon termed metastatic organotropism. The mechanisms underlying organotropism are multifactorial and include the generation of a pre-metastatic niche (PMN), metastatic homing, colonization, dormancy, and metastatic outgrowth. Historically, studies of metastatic organotropism have been limited by a lack of models allowing direct comparison of cells exhibiting different patterns of tropism. However, new innovative models and large-scale sequencing efforts have propelled organotropism research. Herein, we summarize the recent discoveries in metastatic organotropism regulation, focusing on lung, liver, brain, and bone tropism. We discuss how emerging technologies are continuing to improve our ability to model and, hopefully, predict and treat organotropism.
