Mechanistically guided drug repurposing has been made possible by systematically integrating pharmacologic and CRISPR-Cas9 screen data. Our study discovers the biomarker and cell death mechanisms underpinning sensitivity toward AZD5582, an antagonist of the inhibitor of apoptosis family protein. Our findings have important implications for improving future trial design for patients with OSCC using this emerging drug class.
