There are chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients who show resistance to TKI therapy and are prone to progress to more advanced phases of the disease, and new therapeutic approaches are needed. Our study shows that CML cells are vulnerable to dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) inhibition mediated by Meds433, a potent DHODH inhibitor developed by our group.

Abstract

There are chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients who show resistance to TKI therapy and are prone to progress to more advanced phases of the disease, and new therapeutic approaches are needed. Our study shows that CML cells are vulnerable to dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) inhibition mediated by Meds433, a potent DHODH inhibitor developed by our group.
