Research Advance of Venetoclax in Hematological Tumors--Review / 中国实验血液学杂志

ABSTRACT

Venetoclax is a selective inhibitor of the anti-apoptotic protein B-cell lymphoma 2（BCL-2）and has great potential in treating a variety of hematological tumors. In recent years, domestic and foreign scholars have tried to use venetoclax singal or in combination with some drugs to treat the patients with hematological tumors, including elderly acute myeloid leukemia（AML）patients un suitable for intensive chemotherapy, relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia（CLL）, Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma（NHL）and multiple myeloma（MM）patients, these studies have achieved good results．At the same time，some scholars found that the secondary drug-resistance occurred in some patients who continuous treated with Venetoclax, and explored the Venetoclax-resistant mechanism. In this review, the research advance of Venetoclax in hematological tumors and the mechanisms of drug resistance are summarized and discussed briefly.
