UCLA Study Offers Roadmap to Personalized Therapies for Sarcoma

A new UCLA study is the first to identify patient and tumor characterisitcs that predict the successful creation of models and which types of sarcomas are most likely to grow as xenografts. The research, which is the first and largest patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) study in sarcoma, gives physician-scientists a much-needed roadmap for personalizing therapies for the disease without placing patients at risk for treatment-related complications or ineffective therapy.
