Using the 105C and KOC-7c human ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) cell lines, which have distinct proliferative phenotypes as spheroids but the same prototypical OCCC gene mutation profile of constitutively activated AKT signaling with the loss of ARID1A, we revealed therapeutic targets that efficiently kill cells in spheroids. This evidence concerns the gene ARID1A and ovarian clear cell cancer.
