Phenotypic Consequences of <i>SLC25A40-ABCB1</i> Fusions beyond Drug Resistance in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer

Despite high response rates to initial chemotherapy, the majority of women diagnosed with High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (HGSOC) ultimately develop drug resistance within 1–2 years of treatment. We previously identified the most common mechanism of acquired resistance in HGSOC to date, transcripti...
