Fully characterized, patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
Highlights:
Patient derived tumor xenografts (PDX) are created when cancerous tissue from a patient's primary tumor is implanted directly into an immunodeficient mouse. PDX provides a new approach for preclinical testing of novel anticancer compounds in vivo due to its preservation of key features, which includes invasiveness, stromal reaction, tumor vasculature and cellular diversity of human carcinomas. In contrast to a cell line-xenograft tumor model, PDX tumors are established from the transplantation of fresh tumor tissue from a cancer patient into a immunodeficient mouse. As a result, PDX cancer models are becoming popular models to use in cancer drug research.
