DYRK1A inhibition results in MYC and ERK activation rendering KMT2A-R acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells sensitive to BCL2 inhibition.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Unbiased kinome-wide CRISPR screening identified DYRK1A as a potential therapeutic target in KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2A-R) B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Mechanistically, we demonstrate that DYRK1A is regulated by the KMT2A fusion protein and affects cell proliferation by regulating MYC expression and ERK phosphorylation. We further observed that pharmacologic DYRK1A inhibition markedly reduced human KMT2A-R ALL cell proliferation in vitro and potently decreased leukemia proliferation in vivo in drug-treated patient-derived xenograft mouse models. DYRK1A inhibition induced expression of the proapoptotic factor BIM and reduced the expression of BCL-XL, consequently sensitizing KMT2A-R ALL cells to BCL2 inhibition. Dual inhibition of DYRK1A and BCL2 synergistically decreased KMT2A-R ALL cell survival in vitro and reduced leukemic burden in mice. Taken together, our data establishes DYRK1A as a novel therapeutic target in KMT2A-R ALL and credential dual inhibition of DYRK1A and BCL2 as an effective translational therapeutic strategy for this high-risk ALL subtype.
