PQB‐4, a fluorescent small‐molecule ligand that targets c‐MYC DNA G‐quadruplexes (G4s), showed marked synergy with gemcitabine in resistant PANC‐1 cells (CI = 0.027). In vivo, the ligand reduced tumor weight by 44% in a PANC‐1 xenograft model. These results highlight the therapeutic potential of c‐MYC DNA G4‐targeting ligands for treating gemcitabine ...
