Dr Timothy Pardee - Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, Winston-Salem, USA

Dr Pardee speaks with ecancertv at ASH 2016 about CPI-613, a novel agent which inhibits the citric acid cycle (TCA).

He describes how blocking metabolic pathways with CPI-613 starves leukaemia cells of energy and reduces treatment resistance, especially when combined with cytarabine (ara-c) for older patients with relapse acute myeloid leukaemia.

Dr Pardee summarises RNA-seq analysis of patient bone marrow as highlighting a possible gene signature of best responders.
