Genetically-engineered mouse models of human cancer d l f h • Cancer is defined by complex tumor/host cell interactions y p / • Cancer cannot be fully modelled in vitro • Diversity of genetic tools and alleles is needed • Useful for hypothesis testing and hypothesis generation • Preclinical models / therapy individualization TCGA many new endometrial cancer genes •
