Abstract
The delivery of many drugs to the central nervous system (CNS) is limited due to the restrictive nature of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The reduced paracellular diffusion and the presence of various drug efflux transporters in the brain microvessel endothelial cells forming the BBB make effective treatment of brain tumors with chemotherapeutic agents particularly problematic. While Pglycoprotein (P-gp) plays an important role in limiting BBB permeability of chemotherapeutic agents, other drug efflux transporters such as breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) and multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) are likely to impact on chemotherapeutic levels within the brain and brain tumor. The current review examines the restrictive role that drug efflux transporters have in the delivery of chemotherapeutic agents to the brain. Consideration of different approaches taken to minimize the impact of drug efflux transporters in the BBB and improve chemotherapeutic response in treating brain tumors is also discussed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
