CDK4 and metastatic neoplasm: Here we demonstrate the preclinical effectiveness of SINE compounds used as single agents or in combination with either the proteasome inhibitor, bortezomib, or the CDK4/6 inhibitor, abemaciclib, against various patient- derived xenograft (PDX) mouse models of chordoma, which included clival and sacral chordomas from adult or pediatric patients with either primary or metastatic disease, with either differentiated or poorly differentiated subtypes.
