Genetic study predicts success of ATR inhibitors in rare cancer

Scientists at The Institute of Cancer Research, London, have identified a gene that affects how ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) could respond to a new class of drug called ATR inhibitors.  In clinical trials, ATR inhibitors have demonstrated efficacy as a treatment for various types of cancer,… Read More

Study reveals how stomach cancers develop drug resistance

Scientists have shown how stomach cancers can develop resistance to a new class of drugs called ATR inhibitors by switching off the activity of two key genes – raising the possibility of outsmarting cancer by predicting drug resistance in advance.  The findings could pave the way for… Read More
