Cell Line-derived Tumor Xenograft (CDX) models are among the most commonly used research models for efficacy evaluation of anti-cancer therapies. The establishment of CDX models involves inoculation of tumor cells (including various types of cancer cells) into immunodeficient mice. After high-throughput drug screening in vitro, the CDX model is then used for in vivo drug infusion and efficacy evaluations. Due to the long-term cell passage in vitro, they have the characteristics of high homology, easy construction, and reproducibility.
Recipient Backgrounds: BALB/c nude, NOD SCID, C-NKG mice, etc.
Typical Injection Sites: Subcutaneous, Intravenous, or in situ.

Selected Cell line Derived Xenografts (CDX) Model Case Study:
A549 Human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell subcutaneous tumor model
A549 cells were inoculated into BALB/c nude mice, NOD/SCID mice, and BRGSF mice through subcutaneous injection, to measure the tumor volume at different time points. The growth curve of A549 Human non-small cell lung cancer cell subcutaneous tumor results is shown below.
