📣 Happy to share a preprint of our latest manuscript, available now in #bioRxiv. In this work we use #DNAbarcoding, #lineagetracing and #singlecell technologies to interrogate #plasticity and #cancerevolution in #neuroblastoma. We show that… 👇🧵.

đź§µ (3/3).We then used the platform to study cancer evolution and showed:.đź’ˇpermanent non-genetic phenotypic changes in response to Olaparib. đź’ˇtumours undergo treatment-specific functional changes. Importantly, some of these changes affected responses to next-line treatments.

đź§µ (2/3).We next tested PDX responses to alternative clinical trial arms and other relevant treatments. đź’ˇThese data suggest PDXs could be used as anticipatory tools. However, we also highlighted important considerations when using PDXs in this way.

We developed a co-clinical trial platform for treatment-naĂŻve triple-negative breast cancer. In vivo PDXs and ex vivo PDTCs were treated in parallel with patients. đź’ˇ PDXs accurately mirrored clinical drug responses of their matched patient.
