Establishment of multiple novel patient-derived models of desmoplastic small round cell tumor enabling functional characterization of ERBB pathway signaling and pre-clinical evaluation of a novel targeted therapy approach
2020-09-23
Abstract excerpt
Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is characterized by the t(11;22)(p13;q12) chromosomal translocation, which fuses the transcriptional regulatory domain of EWSR1 with the zinc finger DNA-binding domain of WT1 , resulting in the oncogenic transcription factor EWS-WT1. DSRCT primarily affects young males and has a 5-year overall survival of about 15%. Typical treatment approaches for patients with DSRCT...
