“…As observed with DHFR, this is frequently associated with gene amplification. For example, resistance to ZD1694 in human MCF-7 breast cancer, lymphoblastoid, and ovarian carcinoma cell lines, or to ICI-198584 was associated with TS amplification (O'Connor et al, 1992;Freemantle et al, 1995;Jackman et al, 1995;Drake et al, 1996;Tong et al, 1998a;Kitchens et al, 1999a). The relationship between the increase in expression and the level of resistance can vary.…”
