Pharmacogenomic agreement between two cancer cell line data sets

Nature. 2015 Dec 3;528(7580):84-7. doi: 10.1038/nature15736. Epub 2015 Nov 16.

Abstract

Large cancer cell line collections broadly capture the genomic diversity of human cancers and provide valuable insight into anti-cancer drug response. Here we show substantial agreement and biological consilience between drug sensitivity measurements and their associated genomic predictors from two publicly available large-scale pharmacogenomics resources: The Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia and the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer databases.
