A Preclinical Orthotopic Model for Glioblastoma Multiforme that Represents Key Pathways Aberrant in Human Brain Cancer

Abstract: Current therapies for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the highest grade malignant brain tumor, are mostly ineffective, and better preclinical model systems are needed to increase the successful translation of drug discovery efforts into the clinic. Scientists at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have developed and characterized an orthotopic...

A Preclinical Model for Mutant Human EGFR-driven Lung Adenocarcinoma

Abstract: Previously described epidermal growth factor receptor- (EGFR) driven tumor mouse models develop diffuse tumors, which are dissimilar to human lung tumor morphology and difficult to measure by CT and MRI scans. Scientists at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have developed and characterized a genetically engineered mouse (GEM) model of human...
