In vitro studies in OVCAR5 cells were performed as previously described in (13 (link)). OVCAR5 cells (ATCC) were seeded in 96-well plates (Corning Costar Cat.# 3917) in media containing 2.5% FBS (Charles River Laboratories). After 48 hours, paclitaxel (Sigma-Aldrich) ± 100 nmol/L dexamethasone (Sigma-Aldrich) ± 450 nmol/L relacorilant were added. After another 72 hours, 100 μL of Cell Titer-Glo (Promega) reagent was added to each well and luminescence was quantified on the Synergy II microplate reader (BioTek). Data were normalized to controls, either equivalent volumes of dimethyl sulfoxide or empty wells. A non-parametric t test was conducted to compare normalized percentage of viability at 1,000 nmol/L paclitaxel, 100 nmol/L dexamethasone, ± 450 nmol/L relacorilant using Microsoft Excel. Charles River Laboratories study number: e533.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
