Widespread countervailing genomic responses induced by chemotherapy or radiation as a cause of therapeutic failure.

Abstract excerpt

If chemotherapy or ionizing radiation induce widespread genomic responses tending to circumvent or antagonize their ability to kill malignant cells, an additional cause for therapeutic failure would be suggested. There is evidence that some agents evoke extensive countervailing genomic activity, the nature and extent of which can be assessed with the use of 'gene chips'.
