Combined Application of Pan-AKT Inhibitor MK-2206 and BCL-2 Antagonist Venetoclax in B-Cell Precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Aberrant PI3K/AKT signaling is a hallmark of acute B-lymphoblastic leukemia (B‑ALL) resulting in increased tumor cell proliferation and apoptosis deficiency. While previous AKT inhibitors struggled with selectivity, MK‑2206 promises meticulous pan‑AKT targeting with proven anti-tumor activity. We he...
