Resistance to treatment of chemotherapy

Resistance to treatment of chemotherapy

Some patients may develop resistance to drugs such as anthracyclines, podophyllotoxin and its derivatives, vinca alkaloids, and taxanes.
When resistance to a particular drug (or category of drugs) is observed, it is necessary to change the course of treatment to other drugs with a different mechanism of action.
