Summary

Automatic Translation

Here we present a protocol to test the efficacy of targeted therapies selected based on the genomic makeup of a tumor. The protocol describes identification and validation of structural DNA rearrangements, engraftment of patients’ tumors into mice and testing responses to corresponding drugs.
