Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a therapy recalcitrant disease with the worst survival rate of common solid tumours. Preclinical models that accurately reflect the genetic and biological diversity of PDAC will be important for delineating features of tumour biology and therapeutic vulnerabilities. DESIGN: 27 primary PDAC tumours were employed for genetic analysis and development of tumour...
