Birinapant sensitizes platinum-resistant carcinomas with high levels of cIAP to carboplatin therapy

Combination therapy: sensitizing platinum-resistant tumors Carboplatin efficacy can be restored by administering it with birinapant, a drug combination that targets platinum-resistant cancer cells. Platinum-based chemotherapeutics are used to treat almost 50% of cancer patients. Despite excellent in...
