Comprehensive Transcriptomic Analysis of EWSR1::WT1 Targets Identifies CDK4/6 Inhibitors as an Effective Therapy for Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumors
8 Apr 2024
Abstract excerpt
Desmoplastic small round cell tumors (DSRCT) are a type of aggressive, pediatric sarcoma characterized by the EWSR1::WT1 fusion oncogene. Targeted therapies for DSRCT have not been developed, and standard multimodal therapy is insufficient, leading to a 5-year survival rate of only 15% to 25%. Here, we depleted EWSR1::WT1 in DSRCT and established its essentiality in vivo. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that...
