Characterization of tumor epigenetic aberrations is integral to understanding the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and provide diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive information of high clinical relevance. Among the different tumor-associated epigenetic signatures, 5 methyl-cytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) are the two most well-characterized DNA methylation alterations linked to cancer pathogenesis. 5hmC has a tissue-specific distribution and its abundance is subjected to changes in tumor DNA, making it a promising biomarker.

The anti-apoptotic protein myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1) contributes to the pathophysiology of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and certain B-cell malignancies. Tumor dependence on Mcl-1 is associated with resistance to venetoclax. Voruciclib, an oral cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor targeting CDK9, indirectly decreases Mcl-1 protein expression and synergizes with venetoclax in preclinical models.

The B cell receptor (BCR) signalling pathway has an integral role in the pathogenesis of many B cell malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, mantle cell lymphoma, diffuse large B cell lymphoma and Waldenström macroglobulinaemia. Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a key node mediating signal transduction downstream of the BCR. The advent of BTK inhibitors has revolutionized the treatment landscape of B cell malignancies, with these agents often replacing highly intensive and toxic chemoimmunotherapy regimens as the standard of care.

Article Synopsis
  • High-risk factors traditionally predicted poor outcomes for CLL patients, but the use of BTK inhibitors has improved survival rates even for those with these high-risk features.
  • Continuous treatment with BTK inhibitors has positively affected survival, while finite-duration therapies like venetoclax combinations haven't shown the same results.
  • Ongoing research and new treatments emphasize the importance of understanding prognostic factors to guide therapy decisions and encourage participation in clinical trials for patients with high-risk CLL.
