- Description: The PEO4 cell line is one of nine in the PE ovarian cancer panel (derived from 4 patients at varying stages of disease, isolated from various malignant sites and treatment timepoints), providing a model system for ovarian cancer biology and therapeutic response. PEO4 is an adherent cell line derived from a malignant effusion from the peritoneal ascites of a patient with high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (historically described as serous adenocarcinoma). The patient had previously received cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil and chlorambucil treatment, and PEO4 was established following the development of clinical resistance to chemotherapy. PEO4 is tumourigenic in immunologically deprived CBA mice and represents an acquired platinum-resistant model within the PEO cell line series used to study treatment-driven tumour evolution. PEO4 exhibits good growth in semi-solid medium (agar) and is from the same patient as the PEO1 and PEO6 cell lines.
