Preservation and Clonal Behavior of Extrachromosomal DNA in Patient-Derived Xenograft Models of Childhood Cancers
2025-08-19
Abstract excerpt
Extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) is a powerful oncogenic driver linked to poor prognosis in pediatric cancers. Whole-genome sequencing of 338 patient-derived xenograft (PDX) samples and 127 matched primary tumors across multiple childhood cancer types was used to compare ecDNA prevalence, sequence conservation, and clonal dynamics. ecDNA in PDX models frequently mirrored oncogene amplifications observed in patient tum...
