Abstract

Recent studies have demonstrated that robustness in oncogenic signaling networks is a key contributor of resistance to kinase inhibitor monotherapy in glioblastoma patients. In this chapter, we will review several examples where combinatorial kinase inhibition has been employed as a means to overcome chemoresistance in the laboratory setting. Additionally, we will summarize approaches by which systems-level phosphoproteomic platforms, in combination with computational tools, can be employed to develop better combinatorial therapeutic strategies and translate such discoveries from the bench to the bedside.
