Patient-Derived Orthotopic Xenograft Models for High-Grade Pediatric Brain Cancers

Research output: Chapter in Book/Conference paperChapterpeer-review

Abstract

Patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) mouse models are considered the gold standard for evidence-based preclinical research in pediatric neuro-oncology. This protocol describes the generation of PDOX models by intracranial implantation of human pediatric brain cancer cells into immune-deficient mice, and their continued propagation to establish cohorts of animals for preclinical research.
