Patient-derived xenografts undergo mouse-specific tumor evolution
2017
This large-scale analysis of copy number alterations (CNAs) in patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) across 24 cancer types shows that new CNAs accumulate quickly and that the specific CNAs acquired during passaging differ from those acquired during tumor evolution in patients, suggesting that PDX tumors are under distinct selection pressures from tumors in human hosts.
