This result is in line with the previous finding that depletion of Pgd sensitized H1975 lung cancer cells to IACS‐010759 (Sun et al, 2019): in this regard, it is noteworthy that H1975 cells bear an amplified MYC locus and significantly overexpress the protein (Tateishi et al, 2016; Beaulieu et al, 2019). This evidence concerns the gene MYC and lung cancer.
