Get Accurate Results with Validation of CR Cells Heterogeneity

The primary benefit of CR (conditionally reprogrammed) cells is its intratumor and intertumor heterogeneity, even after amplification. This means CR cells can be used instead of genetic engineered cells or commercialized cancer cell lines in traditional patient-derived cancer models like PDX.

LIDE validated this separately to ensure established CR cells demonstrate heterogeneity like its parental PDX tumors. Below is an example of EFGF mutant PDX models and CR cell lines, showing model drug sensitivities are similar.

Model ID EGFR status
LD1-0025-200636 WT
LD1-0006-215676 L858R/T790M
LD1-0025-200717 19del/T790M/C797S
