Dual PI3K and Wnt pathway inhibition is a synergistic combination against triple negative breast cancer

Therapeutics: Dual therapy shrinks triple negative breast tumors Two experimental drugs currently in clinical trials as single agents might work better together against triple negative breast cancer. Jeffrey Solzak and Milan Radovich, and colleagues from the Indiana University School of Medicine in...
