The present invention relates to the treatment of cancer. In this study, the inventors focused on evaluating the efficiency of SIS3 in cancer treatment concurrently with identifying genes driving resistance to SMAD3 inhibition, aiming to find efficient and long-lasting treatment options. Novel high-throughput methods such as CRISPR-screen and long-read RNA sequencing were used to identify and precisely characterise the genes and signalling pathways driving resistance to SMAD3 inhibition. They identified a cell surface protein SLC16A1 / MCT1 as a driver of resistance to SIS3. They demonstrated that loss of MCT1 by CRISPR-Cas9 KO or inhibition by a specific inhibitor AZD3965 results in higher sensitivity to SMAD3 inhibition. To study if the effect is common to other similar cancer types, they also overexpressed MCT1 in KRAS-mutated lung adenocarcinoma cells and observed higher resistance to the inhibitory effect of SIS3. Synergistic inhibition of SMAD3 and MCT1 resulted in efficient melanoma cell death in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting the use of combined inhibition to be a beneficial treatment option for cancer. Thus, the present invention relates to a combination of a SLC16A1 inhibitor and a SMAD3 inhibitor for use in the treatment of a cancer in a subject in need thereof.
