摘要
In this issue of Cancer Cell, Pan et al. show that a combination therapy designed to reactivate the p53 tumor suppressor while antagonizing the anti-apoptotic function of Bcl-2 is highly active in preclinical models of refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The results may move the needle in this hard-to-treat malignancy.
