In this study, we developed long-term resistant (lt-res, several months) pre-clinical models of two drugs inducing mitotic arrest in TP53-mutated cells: adavosertib (ADA), an investigational WEE1 inhibitor targeting the DNA damage response and currently evaluated in clinical trials, and paclitaxel (PTX), a widely used chemotherapeutic agent in cancer care targeting microtubules. Here, TP53 is linked to cancer.
