Abstract

Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models play a crucial role for in vivo research. They maintain the original molecular characteristics of the human tumor and provide a more accurate tumor microenvironment, which cannot be replicated by in vitro models. This chapter describes four different transplantation methods, namely, intra-bursal, intrarenal capsule, intraperitoneal, and subcutaneous, to develop PDX models for ovarian cancer research.
