Biomarker Modulation following Short-Term Vorinostat in Women with Newly Diagnosed Primary Breast Cancer

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Agents that target the epigenome show activity in breast cancer models. In preclinical studies, the histone deacetylase inhibitor vorinostat induces cell-cycle arrest, apoptosis, and differentiation. We evaluated biomarker modulation in breast cancer tissues obtained from women with newly diagnosed invasive disease who received vorinostat and those who did not. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Tumor specimens were...
