Tool Details

*FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY (for other uses, please contact the licensing team)

• Research area: Breast Cancer
• Description: Please register your interest through the enquiry button (quote not currently available) Human breast cancer-derived xenograft that retains high fidelity to original tumour and provides valuable resources for drug discovery and precision oncology. This panel of Patient Derived Xenografts provide models for some of the deadliest forms of breast cancer including drug-resistant, metastatic tumours, and endocrine-resistant estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) and HER2+ tumours. Sample collected in 2017 from breast tumour recurrence of Caucasian female, age 53 at time of collection with a primary diagnosis of IDC 2015. Patient was a former smoker and had clinical metastasis in lung, brain, and pelvis detected. Patient had not undergone radiation therapy prior but had received systemic treatment of docetaxel, trastuzumab, pertuzumab 2015-2016, and tamoxifen 2016 prior to sample collection. Patient and PDX characteristics were as follows - ER status: positive, PR status: positive, HER2 status: positive. PDX information: Generated from HCI-032 2 years later and grown in OVX mice. Not estrogen dependent, PAM50 subtype not done, and metastasis tests not done.

Patient Details

• Cancer type: Breast Cancer
• Biopsy site: Breast (reccurent)
• Gender: Female
• Patient ethnicity: Caucasian
• Treatment history: Pretreated: Patient had not undergone radiation therapy prior but had received systemic treatment of docetaxel, trastuzumab, pertuzumab 2015-2016, and tamoxifen 2016 prior to sample collection

Engraftment Details

• Mice passaged: Yes
• Engraftment site: Cleared mammary fat pad
• Sample type: HCI-032 PDX Tissue Fragment
• Host strain: Immunocompromised mice NOD scid gamma (NSG) Jackson Laboratory 5557; NOD/scid, Jackson Laboratory 1303 or NOD rag gamma (NRG), Jackson Laboratory 7799
• Production details: Fresh or thawed human breast tumour fragments were implanted into the cleared inguinal mammary fat pad of female Immune-compromised mice. For bone metastasis samples, bone fragments were coimplanted. For liquid specimens, pleural effusion, or ascites fluid, 1-2 milion cells were injected into cleared mammary fat pads in Matrigel. For ER+ tumours, mice were dosed with E2 beeswax pellets and given supplemental E2 via drinking water. When tumours reached 1-2 cm in diameter, tumours were aseptically collected and reimplanted into new m ice or banked. Estrogen-independent ER+ breast PDX models were generated when ER+ PDX tumours were transplated into overiectomized mice without E2 supplementation.

Handling

• Initial handling information: Implant into the cleared inguinal mammary fat pad of female Immune-compromised mice NSG (fresh). NSG time to growth: 7 months to 2 cm. Positive ER status
