Multiple ABCB1 transcriptional fusions in drug resistant high-grade serous ovarian and breast cancer
Abstract
ABCB1 encodes Multidrug Resistance Protein which promotes efflux of chemotherapeutic and targeted agents. Here, in breast and ovarian cancer the authors identify multiple transcriptional fusion partners involving ABCB1 that are associated with treatment failure and previous treatment regimens.
