Therapeutic assessment of targeting ASNS combined with L-Asparaginase treatment in solid tumors and investigation of resistance mechanisms
2020-09-09
Abstract excerpt
Asparagine deprivation by L-Asparaginase (L-ASNase) is an effective therapeutic strategy in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, with resistance occurring due to upregulation of ASNS, the only human enzyme synthetizing Asparagine 1 . L-Asparaginase efficacy in solid tumors is limited by dose-related toxicities 2 . Large-scale loss of function genetic in vitro screens identified ASNS as a cancer dependency in several so...
