Combining chemotherapeutics can be beneficial but identifying effective combinations from the vast array of possibilities is resource and time consuming. Here, the authors perform a high-throughput targeted CRISPR knock-out screen identify druggable gene targets which alter sensitivity to chemotherapies. In doing so, they identify DNA-PK inhibition as a sensitiser of neuroblastomas to doxorubicin.
