Human Tumour Xenografts in Anticancer Drug Development

This monograph covers the latest information on the role of human tumour xenografts in the development of anticancer drugs. This model has been used in various experimental studies on human tumour morphology, biology, biochemistry and antitumour therapy. Due to the fact that each individual tumour largely retains its characteristics through serial transplantation in the immune-deficient mouse, this model proves to be particulary valuable in the development of anticancer drugs. The discussion is based on a meeting of the European School of Oncology and the conclusions reached seem to warrant a pilot study for preclinical phase II studies.

  • "Starting in 1986, the European School of Oncology has expanded its activities in post graduate teaching, which consisted mainly of traditional disease-orientated courses, by promoting new educational initiatives. One of these is the cloister seminars, short meet ings intended for highly qualified oncologists and dealing with specific, controversial aspects of clinical practice and research. Another is the institution of permanent study groups, also called task forces, where a limited number of leading experts are invited to meet once a year with the aim of defining the state of the art and possibly reaching a consensus on developments and treatment in specific fields of oncology. This series of ESO Monographs was designed with the specific purpose of disseminat ing the results of the most interesting of the seminars and study groups, and providing concise and updated reviews of the subjects discussed. It was decided to keep the layout very simple in order to keep costs to a minimum and make the monographs available in the shortest possible time, thus overcoming a com mon problem in medical literature: that of the material being outdated even before publication.
