Abstrakt: Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) harboring the t(17;19)(q22;p13) is a rare subtype of leukemia with a dismal prognosis. This recurring translocation produces an aberrant TCF3-HLFfusion with distinct gene expression profiles and drug sensitivity. Recent studies have shown that this subtype of ALL might be targeted using therapies inhibiting BCL-2 and the pre-B cell receptor through inhibition of SRC family kinases. However, preliminary validation of these studies have revealed significant heterogeneity of response to BCL-2 and SRC inhibitors. As such, we sought to identify other possible targets that could overcome this heterogeneity and improve response to therapy.
