Abstract A294: Antitumor activity of AMG900, an Aurora kinase inhibitor, alone or in combination with chemotherapeutic agents on H295A adrenocortical carcinoma cell line.
Abstract:Pediatric adrenocortical tumors (ACT) are rare malignancies and in advanced disease the treatment has a small impact on overall survival. Previous study from our group suggests that AURKA and AURKB overexpression in pediatric ACT may be related to more aggressive disease. These genes are involved in the maintenance of the genome integrity during cell cycle division and they have been considered as new targets to cancer treatment. The present study shows the previous results of the effects of the new Aurora kin… 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.
