PDX Mouse Clinical Trials

Translational Models, Predictive Biomarkers, New Indications, Deeper Drug Insights

The Challenge: Enhancing Clinical Translation in Oncology Drug Development

Many oncology therapies fail in clinical trials—especially in Phase II—due to a lack of efficacy. This underscores the need for more predictive preclinical models that better mirror human responses and improve clinical trial success rates.

Our Solution: PDX Mouse Clinical Trials (MCTs)

(Previously known as HuTrial)

Patient-Derived Xenograft (PDX) Models are transforming preclinical oncology research by offering more clinically relevant data. By preserving the key features of patient tumors, PDX models provide a powerful tool for drug development and clinical translation. These models help bridge the gap between preclinical studies and clinical success, offering oncology drug developers a reliable pathway to more accurate predictions and outcomes.

HuBase™: The World’s Largest Collection of Clinically Relevant PDX Models

Access 2,500+ global PDX models. Tailor your selections based on indication, drug responses, patient histories, and multiomics data for precision in your studies.

Why Choose PDX Mouse Clinical Trials?

Enhancing Oncology Drug Development with Predictive Models

PDX Mouse Clinical Trials offer a unique advantage for oncology drug developers by providing:

  • Better Clinical Translation: PDX models closely mimic human tumor biology, maintaining key features such as the genetic and phenotypic characteristics of patient tumors, leading to more accurate predictions of clinical outcomes.
  • Predictive Biomarker Discovery: These models help identify biomarkers for patient stratification, enabling more personalized treatment strategies and increasing the likelihood of clinical trial success.
  • Exploration of New Indications: PDX models allow for the evaluation of therapies across diverse tumor types, uncovering potential new therapeutic applications and expanding indications.
  • Deeper Drug Response Insights: Gain a deeper understanding of drug efficacy, mechanisms of action (MoA), and resistance mechanisms. PDX models are invaluable for optimizing drug combinations and reducing attrition in clinical development.

Rely on the Experts for Accurate PDX Biomarker Insights

PDX models are among the most predictive of patient tumors, but they come with unique challenges. After human tumor fragments are engrafted into immunodeficient mice, human stroma is quickly replaced by mouse cells, including immune components and blood vessels. This can complicate biomarker analysis and data interpretation, potentially leading to misleading results if human and mouse signals aren’t properly distinguished1,2.

With our deep expertise and a proven track record of publications1-3, Crown Bioscience leads the field in overcoming these challenges, delivering reliable, actionable insights that drive successful oncology research.
