Novel Therapeutic Approach for Human T-cell Malignancies
- Conditions
- T-Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma, Adult
- Registration Number
- NCT06600568
- Lead Sponsor
- Istituto Oncologico Veneto IRCCS
- Brief Summary
This multicenter translational study, with prospective and retrospective samples, aims to identify new strategies to selectively eliminate neoplastic T cells by modulating intracellular ROS levels.
Interactions between drugs capable of activating the apoptotic process (e.g., Venetoclax) and drugs capable of altering ROS homeostasis (e.g., inhibitors of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) will be examined.
The most promising compounds will be selected based on results obtained in vitro on cell lines and PDX already available in the laboratory, and then will be assayed ex vivo in cells obtained from patients with resistant/refractory T-cell neoplasms.
