Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer characterized by the rapid growth of abnormal white blood cells that accumulate in the bone marrow and interfere with the production of normal blood cells. ABT199, also known as venetoclax, is a targeted therapy that inhibits the BCL-2 protein, which is often overexpressed in AML cells and contributes to their survival. By blocking this protein, venetoclax can trigger apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in cancer cells. Thiotepa, a DNA alkylating agent, has been used in conditioning regimens for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) but its combination with ABT199/venetoclax has not been thoroughly explored, until now. In a new study, researchers Benigno C. Valdez, Bin Yuan, David Murray, Jeremy L. Ramdial, Uday Popat, Yago Nieto, and Borje S. Andersson from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and the University of Alberta investigated a promising new approach to AML therapy by combining multiple drugs to enhance cytotoxic effects on AML cells. On March 14, 2024, their new research paper was published in Oncotarget’s Volume 15, entitled, “ABT199/venetoclax synergism with thiotepa enhances the cytotoxicity of fludarabine, cladribine and busulfan in AML cells.” Full blog - https://www.oncotarget.org/2024/04/11/synergistic-effects-of-drug-combinations-targeting-aml-cells/ Paper DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.28563 Correspondence to - Benigno C.
