COMBINATION OF AN ANTI-CANCER AGENT SUCH AS A TYROSINEKINASE INHIBITOR AND A STAT5 ANTAGONIST PREFERABLY A THIAZOLID NEDIONE, FOR ELIMINATING HEMATOLOGIC CANCER STEM CELLS IN VIVO AND FOR PREVENTING HEMATOLOGIC CANCER RELAPSE

Provided are methods for eliminating hematologic cancer stem cells in vivo, and thus preventing cancer relapse. The methods comprise a Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 5 (STAT5) antagonist (e.g., a PPARy agonist) after the patient has had ana initial course of treatment with an anti-...

Zusammenfassung:Provided are methods for eliminating hematologic cancer stem cells in vivo, and thus preventing cancer relapse. The methods comprise a Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 5 (STAT5) antagonist (e.g., a PPARy agonist) after the patient has had ana initial course of treatment with an anti-cancer agent (e.g., a TKI), to eliminate residual cancer stem cells which cause relapse. L'invention concerne des méthodes permettant d'éliminer les cellules souches des cancers hématologiques in vivo, de manière à empêcher une rechute. Les méthodes comprennent l'administration d'un antagoniste de transducteur de signal et activateur de transcription 5 (STAT5) (par exemple un agoniste de PPARy), après que le patient a reçu un traitement initial utilisant un agent anticancéreux (par exemple un TKI), afin d'éliminer les cellules souches cancéreuses résiduelles qui provoquent une rechute.
