Efficacy of PI3K inhibitors in vemurafenib resistant cell lines. a Six melanoma lines, originally sensitive to vemurafenib, were treated with increasing concentrations of vemurafenib over a period of 2 months to make the drug resistant clones. These clones were then tested for their sensitivity for (b) Vemurafenib, (c) CI1040 and (d) ZSTK474. Cell viability was determined using the sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay. Data were from 3 to 4 independent experiments performed in duplicates
