Chemotherapy is a mainstream cancer treatment, but has a constant challenge of drug resistance, which consequently leads to poor prognosis in cancer treatment. For better understanding and effective treatment of drug-resistant cancer cells, omics approaches have been widely conducted in various forms. A notable use of omics data beyond routine data mining is to use them for computational modeling that allows generating useful predictions, such as drug responses and prognostic biomarkers. In particular, an increasing volume of omics data has facilitated the development of machine learning models. In this mini review, we highlight recent studies on the use of multi-omics data for studying drug-resistant cancer cells. We put a particular focus on studies that use computational models to characterize drug-resistant cancer cells, and to predict biomarkers and/or drug responses. Computational models covered in this mini review include network-based models, machine learning models and genome-scale metabolic models. We also provide perspectives on future research opportunities for combating drug-resistant cancer cells.

Presentation of pancreatic cancer is localized, locally advanced or metastatic. With the later represented the main bulk (more than 80%). Despite the significant innovation in molecular analysis and therapeutic approach in many types of cancer in the last two decades, still the outcome of advanced pancreatic cancer is disappointing and the mortality rate approximately unchanged. In this mandated review we intended to highlight the standard of care and emerging agents for advanced pancreatic cancer treatment.

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused predominantly by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. India accounts for one fourth of the global TB burden. Drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) undermines control efforts and its burden is poorly understood in resource-limited settings. Drug resistant TB is a laboratory based diagnosis and is performed either by phenotypic drug susceptibility testing using solid/liquid culture or genotypic testing for detection of resistance by Line Probe Assay/Cartridge based Nucleic Acid Amplification tests.
