Abstract

Acquired drug resistance leads to poor clinical outcome in high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). We have demonstrated the efficacy of the novel drug CX-5461 in HGSOC is mediated through destabilization of DNA replication forks. The data highlights the potential of CX-5461 in overcoming a general mechanism of chemotherapeutic resistance.
