Erdal Toprak: More Effective, Lower-Toxicity Combination Therapies for Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Erdal Toprak, Co-Founder of BAIT-Bio LLC, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Our lab’s first cancer paper is now out! We systematically screened 105 clinically relevant drug pairs and quantified their interactions across six genetically diverse acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines. We found that synergy and antagonism are prevalent but rarely conserved across different genetic backgrounds—an IDH2 mutation, for example, can flip a synergistic combination into an antagonistic one.
These genotype-specific insights can point the way toward more effective, lower-toxicity combination therapies. Read more.”
