These GATA-3 dependent transcriptional programs, in collaboration with the genetic landscape, promote cell growth and survival, and confer resistance to conventional chemotherapeutic agents. We observed that transcriptional cyclin dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) activation regulates diverse oncogenic transcriptional programs in these aggressive T-cell lymphomas and is thus a novel therapeutic vulnerability. Using complementary and orthogonal approaches, we identified multiple independent mechanisms by which CDK9 promotes T-cell lymphomagenesis, including a mechanism by which GATA-3 promotes CDK9 activation at GATA-3 dependent loci. We also identify novel mechanisms by which GATA-3 and CDK9 regulate rRNA transcription and processing, respectively, collaboratively promoting ribosome biogenesis. Therefore, CDK9 is a therapeutic vulnerability across genetically and transcriptionally diverse T-cell lymphomas, including those for which GATA-3 is oncogenic.","PeriodicalId":8989,"journal":{"name":"Blood Cancer Journal","volume":"206 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.8,"publicationDate":"2025-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145611323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, some patients do not attain complete remission, and over time, most patients relapse. Frontline triplet therapy incorporating a targeted therapy (FLT3, IDH or menin inhibitor) is an emerging treatment concept under investigation for this population. Initial triplet regimens have yielded encouraging composite complete remission and measurable residual disease negativity rates, enabling the transition to allogeneic stem cell transplantation for eligible patients. While effective, triplets are associated with myelosuppression and cytopenia-related toxicities, which can affect treatment tolerability and quality of life. In this review, we summarize the available evidence for triplet therapy in AML and offer our recommendations on the practical application of triplets in clinical practice, with particular focus on adjustments to dosing schedules in induction and continuation cycles. We also outline drug-specific adverse effects and interactions based on emerging clinical data to help guide the clinician, given the increasing use of novel combination therapies.","PeriodicalId":8989,"journal":{"name":"Blood Cancer Journal","volume":"171 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.8,"publicationDate":"2025-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145599078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
