Cisplatin and carboplatin are the primary first-line therapies for the treatment of ovarian cancer. However, resistance to these platinum-based drugs occurs in the large majority of initially responsive tumors, subsequently resulting in a poor long-term prognosis. To model the onset of drug resista...

Purpose: Despite advances in radical surgery and chemotherapy delivery, ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. Most of these patients are treated with platinum-based chemotherapies, but there is no biomarker model to guide their responses to these therapeutic agents. We have d...

Recent studies have suggested that elevated expression of aldoketoreductase (AKR) 1C1 or 1C2 in tumour cells is associated with increased resistance to DNA damaging agents such as cisplatin and doxorubicin. However, it has not been shown whether selection of tumour cells for resistance to DNA-damag...

PPARγ is a member of the nuclear receptor family for which agonist ligands have anti-growth effects. However, clinical studies using PPARγ ligands as a monotherapy failed to show a beneficial effect. Here we have studied the effects of PPARγ activation with chemotherapeutic agents in current us...

Platinum-based chemotherapy remains the cornerstone of treatment for most people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), either as adjuvant therapy in combination with a second cytotoxic agent or in combination with immunotherapy. Resistance to therapy, either in the form of primary refractory dise...

Oxaliplatin is a member of the family of Pt-containing chemotherapeutic agents that also include cisplatin (CDDP) and carboplatin. OXA is distinguished from these two older drugs by its different spectrum of activity both in preclinical models and in clinical trials. It is the only platinum analogue...

Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) causes the premature death of over 1 million people worldwide each year, but remains inadequately understood at the molecular level. To provide new insights for NSCLC treatment we performed a molecular characterisation of wild type and platinum drugs resistance in ...

Background: Current protocols for the treatment of ovarian cancer include combination chemotherapy with a platinating agent and a taxane. However, many patients experience relapse of their cancer and the development of drug resistance is not uncommon, making successful second line therapy difficult ...

Although in vitro models have been a cornerstone of anti-cancer drug development, their direct applicability to clinical cancer research has actually been uncertain. Using a state-of-the-art Taqman-based qRT-PCR assay, we investigated the multidrug resistance (MDR) transcriptome of six cancer types,...
