Identification of treatment‐induced vulnerabilities in pancreatic cancer patients using functional model systems by Katja Peschke, Hannah Jakubowsky, Arlett Schäfer, Carlo Maurer, Sebastian Lange, Felix Orben, Raquel Bernad, Felix N Harder, Matthias Eiber, Rupert Öllinger, Katja Steiger, Melissa Schlitter, Wilko Weichert, Ulrich Mayr, Veit Phillip, Christoph Schlag, Roland M Schmid, Rickmer F Braren, Bo Kong, Ihsan Ekin Demir, Helmut Friess, Roland Rad, Dieter Saur, Günter Schneider, Maximilian Reichert

“…We demonstrate that treatment‐induced tumor cell plasticity in vivo distinctly changes responsiveness to targeted therapies, without the presence of a selectable genetic marker, indicating that tumor cell plasticity can be functionalized. By adding a mechanistic layer to precision oncology, adaptive processes of tumors under therapy can be exploited, particularly in highly plastic tumors, such as pancreatic cancer.…”
