Gemcitabine and anthracyclines in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
Most of the patients with advanced ovarian cancer will recur after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy and need additional treatment. Gemcitabine (G) and Anthracyclines are active in this setting and their combination has shown synergistic antiproliferative activity in vitro, due to different mechanisms of action and non-overlapping toxicities.In ...

Due to its rapid progression, metastasis and resistance to chemotherapy, pancreatic cancer is one of the most malignant tumor types to affect the digestive system. Gemcitabine chemotherapy is typically the first choice of treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer; however, chemoresistance is a major obstacle to successful treatment.

Resistance mechanisms to gemcitabine in pancreatic cancer [PDF]
Treatment of pancreatic cancer involves combinations of therapeutics including use of the chemotherapy agent gemcitabine. This thesis aimed to identify gemcitabine resistance mechanisms in pancreatic cancer and so enable discovery of biomarkers to tailor chemotherapy.

Gemcitabine: An Alternative Treatment for Oxaliplatin-Resistant Colorectal Cancer
Resistance to treatments is one of the leading causes of cancer therapy failure. Oxaliplatin is a standard chemotherapy used to treat metastatic colorectal cancer. However, its efficacy is greatly reduced by the development of resistances. In a previous study, we deciphered the mechanisms leading to oxaliplatin resistance and highlighted the roles ...

A kinome screen identifies checkpoint kinase 1 (CHK1) as a sensitizer for RRM1-dependent gemcitabine efficacy. [PDF]
Gemcitabine is among the most efficacious and widely used antimetabolite agents. Its molecular targets are ribonucleotide reductase M1 (RRM1) and elongating DNA.

Human concentrative nucleoside transporter 3 transfection with ultrasound and microbubbles in nucleoside transport deficient HEK293 cells greatly increases gemcitabine uptake. [PDF]
Gemcitabine is a hydrophilic clinical anticancer drug that requires nucleoside transporters to cross plasma membranes and enter cells. Pancreatic adenocarcinomas with low levels of nucleoside transporters are generally resistant to gemcitabine and are ...
