lüll Dissecting variability in responses to cancer chemotherapy through systems pharmacology Yang R; Niepel M; Mitchison TK; Sorger PKClin Pharmacol Ther 2010[Jul]; 88 (1): 34-8Variability in patient responses to even the most potent and targeted therapeutics is now the primary challenge facing drug discovery and patient care, particularly in oncology and immune therapy. Variability with respect to mechanisms of induced resistance is observed both in drug-naive patients and among those who are initially responsive. Genomics has developed powerful tools for systematic interrogation of disease genotype and transcriptional states (particularly in cancer) and for correlation of these measures with parameters of disease such as histological diagnosis and outcome. In contrast, mechanistic preclinical studies remain relatively narrowly focused, leading to many apparent contradictions and poor understanding of the determinants of response. We describe the emergence of a systems pharmacology approach that is mechanistic, quantitative, probabilistic, and postgenomic and promises to do for mechanistic pharmacology what genomics is doing for correlative studies. We focus on studies in cell lines (which currently dominate mechanism-oriented analysis), but our arguments are equally valid for real tumors studied in short-term culture as xenografts and, perhaps some time in the future, in humans.|*Pharmacology, Clinical[MESH]|*Systems Biology[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Antineoplastic Agents/administration & dosage/metabolism/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Drug Delivery Systems[MESH]|Environment[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Neoplasms/*drug therapy[MESH] |
