Resistance to drugs is a huge issue. There is a whole journal devoted to drug resistance -

http://www.drupjournal.com/home

It includes recent work on EFGR targeted resistance in HNSCC - I can only get at the abstracts on my login. I stumbled on the journal trying to find references to recent work by Posner and Bonner. Will try to post the best links for these this weekend.
