Drug resistance occurs when cancer fails to respond to a treatment. Sometimes, cancer cells are resistant to a particular treatment; in other cases, the drug may work at first, but the cells acquire changes during treatment that cause them to develop resistance. Identifying ways to overcome drug resistance is a major area of breast cancer research.
