Research project

Phenotypic heterogeneity of myelodysplastic cells and influence of epigenetic therapies (WP1)

Rationale and objectives

The project aims to:

1) determine the cellular mode of action of IDHis in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) in monotherapy or in combination with Azacitidine;

2) identify at the single-cell level the gene expression signatures associated with resistance to IDHis as monotherapy or in combination with Azacitidine;

3) identify in vitro and then validate in vivo therapeutic combinations reverting the expression of resistance signatures to IDHis.
