DOI: 10.1186/s13148-019-0775-1
Abstract: BackgroundUntil today, adult and pediatric clinical trials investigating single-agent or combinatorial HDAC inhibitors including vorinostat in solid tumors have largely failed to demonstrate efficacy. These results may in part be explained by data from preclinical… read more here.
