Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This protocol provides the steps required for the establishment of patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumors for head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) and their utility in examining drug responses. PDXs recapitulate the heterogeneity observed in the corresponding human tumors, which makes them an ideal pre-clinical model system. This protocol outlines the detailed steps required for (1) the generation of HNSCC-PDXs, (2) the processing of tumor tissues, and (3) the expansion of PDX models into cohorts for (4) drug testing. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol please refer to Karamboulas et al. (2018).

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
