CDK4/6–BET Synergy in Pancreatic Cancer via Wnt
2026-08-16
Gu et al. show that combining the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib with the BET inhibitor JQ1 suppresses pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma more effectively than either agent alone while counteracting CDK4/6 inhibitor-associated EMT. The study links this effect to GSK3β-mediated Wnt/β-catenin regulation and provides a rationale for mechanism-guided combination therapy in PDAC.
