Researchers exploit genetic ‘co-dependence’ to kill treatment-resistant tumor cells
Cancer cells fueled by the mutant KRAS oncogene, which makes them notoriously difficult to treat, can be killed by blocking a more vulnerable genetic partner of KRAS, report scientists at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT. The laboratory results, published today online by the journal Nature in advance of…
