Potential applications<br />
Predictive tests of response to chemotherapy may be used<br />
in medical oncology to select patients with an increased<br />
likelihood to benefi t from therapy. The novel information<br />
on molecular mechanisms responsible for resistance to<br />
chemotherapy may lead to development of modulators of<br />
resistance. Both these advances may in turn lead to improved<br />
results of cancer chemotherapy. The development of tools<br />
to predict severe drug toxicity will lead to safer cancer<br />
chemotherapy.<br />
