    Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a heterogeneous cancer affecting T- or B-lymphocyte precursors, predominantly in children.

  • 2

    HSP90 inhibitors, including NVP-BEP800, have shown potential in treating T-ALL and B-ALL by destabilizing SRC kinases.

  • 3

    NVP-BEP800 reduced the viability of primary T-ALL and B-ALL cells in vitro and inhibited leukemia cell proliferation in xenograft models.

  • 4

    High HSP90 expression correlates with poor survival rates in ALL patients, indicating its potential as a therapeutic target.

  • 5

    The study emphasizes the need for new therapies to improve remission maintenance and survival in ALL patients.
