A patient-derived xenograft and a cell line derived from it form a useful preclinical model for small bowel adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Basic and clinical studies on small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) are limited due to the rare nature of this cancer. We established a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model from the tumor tissue of an advanced SBA patient with liver and peritoneal metastasis, and a cell line from the PDX. In the PDX model, compared to the control group, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) treatment resulted in statistically significant tumor growth inhibition (TGI), while oxaliplatin (OHP) and irinotecan had no significant inhibitory effects. In combination with 5-FU, OHP showed the highest rate of TGI. The IC₅₀ for OHP was significantly lower than those for paclitaxel, gemcitabine, and trifluorothymidine in the PDX-derived cell line when compared to in HT29, a colon cancer cell line.
