ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for the treatment of cancer. In particular, the present invention discloses inhibitors of the Fanconi anemia pathway and methods using same. Such inhibitors are useful in inhibiting DNA damage repair and can be useful, for example, in the treatment of cancer.
