Significance
Accurate modeling of the molecular subtypes of pancreatic cancer is crucial to facilitate the generation of effective therapies. We report the development of an intraductal organoid transplantation model of pancreatic cancer that models the progressive switching of subtypes, and identify stochastic and RAS-driven mechanisms that determine subtype specification.See related commentary by Pickering and Morton, p. 1448.This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 1426.
