“…RCC TGs reproduce the histology, gene expression, DNA copy number alterations, and mutations of the corresponding tumors from affected individuals ( Sivanand et al, 2012 ; Pavía-Jiménez et al, 2014 ; Grisanzio et al, 2011 ). In addition, RCC TGs preserve the drug responsiveness of human RCC ( Sivanand et al, 2012 ; Chen et al, 2016b ; Karam et al, 2011 ; Ingels et al, 2014 ; Cho et al, 2016 ; Zhao et al, 2017 ; Elbanna et al, 2020 ; Moserle et al, 2020 ). In studies optimizing drug administration regimens to model human exposures, RCC TGs have been shown to respond to sunitinib ( Motzer et al, 2009 ; Bukowski et al, 2007 ), but not to erlotinib, used as a negative control ( Sivanand et al, 2012 ).…”
