Anticancer Drug Resistance: Advances in Molecular and Clinical Research

Over the last 50 years, drug development and clinical trials have resulted in successful complete responses in diseases such as childhood leukemia, testicular cancer and Hodgkin's disease. We are still, however, confronted with over 500,000 cancer-related deaths per year. Clearly, the phenomenon of drug resistance is largely responsible for these failures and continues to be an area of active investigation.
Since the last volume in this series, we have learned that the energy-dependent dru...
