Research recently published in Drug Resistance Updates has revealed a previously unknown biological process through which breast tumor cells develop resistance to standard treatment, which could open the door for cancer scientists around the world to further target this vulnerability in hopes of creating more effective therapies for disease.
Drug resistance discovery could 'move the field forward' for breast cancer treatment retrieved 29 May 2024 from https://medicalxpress.com/news/2024-05-drug-resistance-discovery-field-breast.html

Novel inhibitor insights offer pathway to preventing PXR-associated drug resistanceDeaths from cancer or infections can occur when available treatments are ineffective. Once turned on, pregnane X receptor (PXR) activates the expression of genes encoding enzymes that metabolize external chemicals, including drugs. This causes a significant drop in the effectiveness of chemotherapy, antivirals and other pharmaceuticals.
