Combination indices (CI) of Chou‐Talalay computation, shown for 50% and 90% affected fraction (fa) values at 72 h post‐exposure in vitro, for five mucosal melanomas, provide quantitative definition for drug additive effect (CI = 1), synergism (CI < 1), and antagonism (CI > 1) in combination drug therapy.
