A panel of four cell sublines, each selected for resistance to a different antineoplastic agent, has been developed from a human malignant melanoma cell line G3361. Following repeated exposure to escalating doses of the drug of interest, cloned sublines were developed that are 9-fold resistant to cisplatin (G3361/CP), 11-fold resistant to 4-hydroxyperoxy-cyclophosphamide (4-HC) (G3361/HC), 4-fold resistant to carmustine (BCNU) (G3361/BCNU), and 4-fold resistant to melphalan (G3361/PAM). The cross-resistance of each resistant cell line was determined for cisplatin, BCNU, 4-HC, melphalan, carboplatin, nitrogen mustard, and Adriamycin...
