Description
A preclinical study to evaluate the efficacy of targeting the overexpressed CHEK1 cell cycle chekpoint kinase, including both miRNA and Prexasertib-induced inhibition. Both in vitro and in vivo, Prexasertib had strong single agent efficacy and augmented the effect of Olaparib or Cisplatin in either combination, including platinum-resistant models. CHEK1 and MYC overexpression were predictors of response.
