Journal ArticleDOI

The BET inhibitor GS-5829 targets chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells and their supportive microenvironment.

TL;DR: GS-5829 inhibited CLL cell proliferation and induced leukemia cell apoptosis through deregulation of key signaling pathways, such as BLK, AKT, ERK1/2, and MYC and increased synergistically in combinations with B-cell receptor signaling inhibitors, the BTK inhibitor ibrutinib, the PI3Kδ inhibitor idelalisib, and the SYK inhibitor entospletinib.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterizing the kinetics of lymphocytosis in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia treated with single-agent ibrutinib.

TL;DR: Lymphocytosis resolves in the majority of patients and does not require interruption or discontinuation of ibrutinib therapy, and in the absence of other signs of progression, does not represent disease progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Constitutive Phosphorylation of STAT3 by the CK2-BLNK-CD5 Complex

TL;DR: Data show that the cellular proteins CK2, CD5, and BLNK are required for constitutive phosphorylation of STAT3 in CLL, and whether this protein complex phosphorylates other proteins or inhibiting its activity has yet to be determined.
