Evaluating Patient-Derived Colorectal Cancer Xenografts as Preclinical Models by Comparison with Patient Clinical Data
26 Feb 2015
Abstract excerpt
Development of targeted therapeutics required translationally relevant preclinical models with well-characterized cancer genome alterations. Here, by studying 52 colorectal patient-derived tumor xenografts (PDX), we examined key molecular alterations of the IGF2-PI3K and ERBB-RAS pathways and response to cetuximab. PDX molecular data were compared with that published for patient colorectal tumors in The Cancer...
