  1. Cells cultured in two dimensions and three dimensions were treated with compounds for 72 h. A CellTiter Glo® viability assay was performed and GI50 values were obtained. Values are means ± SD of the studies reported in Additional file 10 (apart from MDA-MB-231 P that when treated with PI-103 over the concentration range tested, did not achieve a GI50).
