TP53 loss | pancreatic cancer | sensitive | Adavosertib + Gemcitabine | Preclinical - Pdx | Actionable | In a preclinical study, the combination of Adavosertib (MK-1775) and Gemzar (gemcitabine) inhibited Wee1 expression, Cdc2 phosphorylation, and tumor growth in several patient-derived xenograft models of pancreatic cancer harboring TP53 mutations (PMID: 21389100). | 21389100 |
TP53 wild-type | sarcoma | sensitive | Adavosertib + Gemcitabine | Preclinical - Pdx & cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, the combination of Adavosertib (MK-1775) and Gemzar (gemcitabine) induced cell death in a variety of sarcoma cell lines and inhibited tumor growth in a patient-derived sarcoma xenograft model, independent of TP53 mutational status (PMID: 23520471). | 23520471 |
