Absolutely wonderful to see this study from @PeterMacRes and @MonashUni published in PNAS
31 Aug 2023
Peter Mac's @JohnstoneRicky and @MonashUni researchers have designed a single drug that delivers a lethal ‘one-two’ punch to several types of #bloodcancer in preclinical studies and could lead to improved treatments.

Thanks for posting this very exciting data @DanilovLab. Targeting aberrant transcription in oncology…. A very appealing concept for the @JohnstoneLab and others that’s for sure.

CDK9 is an important target in NHL. In heavily-pretreated DLBCL pts including many post CAR-T, ORR/CR 50%/20% and some are durable. Excited to share clinical data on the molecule our lab and Australian colleagues helped advance into trials #ICML17 @JohnstoneRicky @DrAnasYounes

So proud to see @Stephintje transition from a postdoc in the @JohnstoneLab to an independent position @WEHI_research and now Snow Fellow…. Great things to come 4 sure! Kudos to @SnowMedical for awesome support of Australian science 👏 @PeterMacRes
WEHI's @Stephintje is one of three Australian researchers to receive an $8m Fellowship from @SnowMedical. He will use the Fellowship to study the cell’s messenger factory, RNAPII, to find new treatment options for cancers such as leukaemia.

In the latest issue! The balance between kinase and phosphatase activity provides a control point for gene expression that can be exploited to inhibit tumorigenesis
