  • Research area: Breast Cancer
  • Description: Human breast cancer patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model that retains high fidelity to original tumour, including spatial structure, intratumour heterogeneity, genomic features, tumour growth rate, metastatic patterns, and drug responses. These highly translatable PDX models can be used to more accurately assess therapeutic efficacy and predict patient responses in preclinical drug validation studies than traditional models. This panel of PDX models includes some of the deadliest forms of breast cancer such as drug-resistant, metastatic tumours, and endocrine-resistant estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor positive (HER2+) tumours. Sample taken in 2019 from lymph node recurrence of a Caucasian female, age 55 at time of collection with a primary diagnosis of IDC; 2017. Patient had no previous history of smoking. Metastasis was detected in the auxillary lymph node. It's unknown if patient had not undergone radiation therapy but patient had received systemic treatment of dose dense doxorubicun, paclitaxel 2017; letrozole 2018; capecitabine 2018 prior to sample collection. Patient characteristics were as follows - ER status: positive (5%), PR status: negative, HER2 status: negative. PDX characteristics are as follows - ER status: negative, PR status: negative, HER2 status: negative. PDX information: PAM50 subtype tests not done and tests to detect metastasis not done.

Patient Details

  • Cancer type: Breast Cancer
  • Cancer subtype: Infiltrating Ductal Carcinoma
  • Biopsy site: Lymph Node metastasis
  • Gender: Female
  • Patient ethnicity: Caucasian
  • Treatment history: Pretreated: It's unknown if patient had not undergone radiation therapy but patient had received systemic treatment of dose dense doxorubicun, paclitaxel 2017; letrozole 2018; capecitabine 2018 prior to sample collection

Engraftment Details

  • Mice passaged: Yes
  • Engraftment site: Cleared mammary fat pad
  • 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 NOD.SCID, and NRG. NOD.SCID and NRG (fresh) time to growth: 3 months to 2 cm
