Abstract

Altered mRNA splicing features in many cancers, but it has not been linked to drug response. Here, with their meta-analytic framework, the authors analyse pharmacogenomic data to identify isoform-based biomarkers predictive of in vitro drug response, and show them to frequently be strong predictors.
