Potent Personalized Venetoclax Partners for Acute Myeloid Leukemia Identified by Ex Vivo Drug Screening

High-throughput screens (HTS) have been utilized to assess the efficacy of single drugs against patient tumor samples with the purpose of optimizing precision therapy, but testing the synergy of drug combinations can identify the ideal second drug to add. With novel sophisticated HTS, effective venetoclax combinations can be revealed that provide the cell state, phenotype, and molecular features of the susceptible and resistant cell populations.
