While there is a high interest in drug combinations in cancer therapy, openly accessible datasets for drug combination responses are sparse. Here we present a dataset comprising 171 pairwise combinations of 19 individual drugs targeting signal transduction mechanisms across eight cancer cell lines, where the effect of each drug and drug combination is reported as cell viability assessed by metabolic activity. Drugs are chosen by their capacity to specifically interfere with well-known signal transduction mechanisms. Signalling processes targeted by the drugs include PI3K/AKT, NFkB, JAK/STAT, CTNNB1/TCF, and MAPK pathways. Drug combinations are classified as synergistic based on the Bliss independence synergy metrics. The data identifies combinations that synergistically reduce cancer cell viability and that can be of interest for further pre-clinical investigations.

Global nonprofit biological resource center (BRC) and research organization that provides biological products, technical services and educational programs to private industry, government and academic organizations. Its mission is to acquire, authenticate, preserve, develop and distribute biological materials, information, technology, intellectual property and standards for the advancement and application of scientific knowledge. The primary purpose of ATCC is to use its resources and experience as a BRC to become the world leader in standard biological reference materials management, intellectual property resource management and translational research as applied to biomaterial development, standardization and certification. ATCC characterizes cell lines, bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, as well as develops and evaluates assays and techniques for validating research resources and preserving and distributing biological materials to the public and private sector research communities.

View all literature mentionsDatabase of all cell lines used in biomedical research which include immortalized cell lines, naturally immortal cell lines (stem cells), widely used and distributed finite life cell lines, vertebrate cell lines (majority being human, mouse, and rat), and invertebrate (insects and ticks) cell lines, as well as cell line synonyms. Each cell line is provided with the following information: the recommended name (the name which appears in the original publication), a list of synonyms, a unique accession number, comments on a number of topics including misspellings and gene transfection, information on the tissue/organ origin with the UBERON code, the NCI Thesaurus or Orphanet ORDO code for the disease(s) the individual suffered from (for cancer and human genetic disease lines only), the species of origin, the parent cell line, cross-references of sister cell lines, the sex of the individual, the category in which the cell line belongs (Adult stem cell; Cancer cell line; Embryonic stem cell; Factor-dependent cell line; Finite cell line; Hybrid cell line; Hybridoma; Induced pluripotent stem cell; Spontaneously immortalized cell line; Stromal cell line; Telomerase immortalized cell line; Transformed cell line; Undefined cell line type), web links, publication references, and/or cross-references to cell line catalogs/collections, ontologies, cell lines databases/resources, and to databases that list cell lines as samples.
