A combination strategy targeting enhancer plasticity exerts synergistic lethality against BETi-resistant leukemia cells

Epigenetic changes can drive drug resistance in cancer. Here, the authors show that in BET inhibitor resistant leukaemia cells, genome-wide enhancer remodelling drives therapeutic resistance and targeting enhancer plasticity may overcome this resistance.
