Abstract:Introduction: Molecularly targeted agents, such as the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib, may produce short-term responses in some patients; however, most patients are intrinsically resistant, or develop resistance through restructuring of signal transduction pathways. SnapPath™ is a live-cell-processing platform that utilizes ex vivo signal transduction modulation of live tumor samples to produce Functional Signaling Profiles (FSPs). Application of this technology to Champions TumorGraft models may provide novel ins… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
