Dasatinib is a novel, potent, multi-targeted kinase inhibitor that is approved in Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia following imatinib failure. Clinical trials have demonstrated its activity across all phases of CML. Dasatinib was superior to high-dose imatinib in a randomized, Phase II study of patients with chronic-phase CML who were resistant or intolerant to imatinib. Preliminary data from a Phase II trial in patients with previously untreated CML suggests that dasatinib compares favorably with imatinib in first-line use. Adverse events experienced with dasatinib include myelosuppression and fluid retention (e.g., pleural effusions), which were manageable with dose adjustment or treatment.

The T315I-inclusive compound mutation, the multiple mutations including the T315I mutation on the same BCR::ABL1 gene, confers resistance to diverse tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Development of the F311I/T315I compound mutation has been reported in chronic myeloid leukemia patients who sequentially showed clinical resistance to imatinib and dasatinib. The establishment of a human leukemia model with the T315I-inclusive compound mutation remains an experimental challenge.

Background: The accurate identification of molecular subtypes in digestive tract cancer (DTC) is crucial for making informed treatment decisions and selecting potential biomarkers. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, various machine learning algorithms have been successfully applied in this field. However, the complexity and high dimensionality of the data features may lead to overlapping and ambiguous subtypes during clustering.

Discovery Research, AbbVie, Inc., 1 North Waukegan Rd., North Chicago, Illinois 60064, United States.

Affinity capture (AC) combined with mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics is highly utilized throughout the drug discovery pipeline to determine small-molecule target selectivity and engagement. However, the tedious sample preparation steps and time-consuming MS acquisition process have limited its use in a high-throughput format. Here, we report an automated workflow employing biotinylated probes and streptavidin magnetic beads for small-molecule target enrichment in the 96-well plate format, ending with direct sampling from EvoSep Solid Phase Extraction tips for liquid chromatography (LC)-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) analysis.
