“…Extensive model characterisation should be undertaken at each in vivo passage to characterise molecular concordance with the patient tumour and exclude the possibility of murine EBV-associated lymphoma [ 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 52 , 72 ]. At this point, the possibilities for utilisation of a successful neuroblastoma PDX model are far-reaching and include the study of clonal dynamics [ 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 ], preclinical drug testing [ 34 , 35 , 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 ], and immunological studies by using humanized mice or switching the mouse strain for further engraftment [ 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 ].…”
