leading cause of cancer-related death of North American males.1 The disease is at present incurable once it has metastasized, and most deaths from this disease are due to metastases that are highly resistant to current conventional therapies. Prostate cancer is considered a multifocal disease that generally consists of a dominant cancer and one or more concurrent cancers of smaller volume with ...
متن کاملMouse Models of Colorectal Cancer-Derived Circulating Tumor Cells
Metastasis is the major cause of death in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are the biologic correlate of metastasis. Despite the clinical relevance of CTCs, there has been little progress in understanding their biology in detail; particularly the phenotype of CTCs with metastasis-forming capacities is still unknown. In this article we discuss the benefits and lim...
متن کاملCirculating Tumor Cells as a Biomarker of Response to Treatment in Patient-Derived Xenograft Mouse Models of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cells shed from solid tumors into circulation and have been shown to be prognostic in the setting of metastatic disease. These cells are obtained through a routine blood draw and may serve as an easily accessible marker for monitoring treatment effectiveness. Because of the rapid progression of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), early insight into treatm...
متن کاملCirculating Tumor Cells in Prostate Cancer
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can provide a non-invasive, repeatable snapshot of an individual patient's tumor. In prostate cancer, CTC enumeration has been extensively studied and validated as a prognostic tool and has received FDA clearance for use in monitoring advanced disease. More recently, CTC analysis has been shifting from enumeration to more sophisticated molecular characterization o...
