Independent drug action in combination therapy: implications for precision oncology
Combination therapies are superior to monotherapy for many cancers. This advantage was
historically ascribed to the ability of combinations to address tumor heterogeneity, but …

A human breast cancer-derived xenograft and organoid platform for drug discovery and precision oncology
Abstract Models that recapitulate the complexity of human tumors are urgently needed to
develop more effective cancer therapies. We report a bank of human patient-derived …

Patient-derived xenografts undergo mouse-specific tumor evolution
Patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) have become a prominent cancer model system, as they
are presumed to faithfully represent the genomic features of primary tumors. Here we …
