Abstract
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are key cell surface receptors involved in cell communication and signal transduction, with great importance in cell growth, differentiation, survival, and metabolism. Dysregulation of RTKs, such as EGFR, VEGFR, HER2 or ROR, could lead to various diseases, particularly cancers. ROR1 has emerged as a promising target in hematological malignancies. The development of ROR1 targeted therapies is continuously growing leading to remarkable novel therapeutical approaches using mAbs, antibody-drug conjugates, several small molecules or CAR T cells which have shown encouraging preclinical results. In the hematological field, mAbs, small molecules, BiTEs or CAR T cell therapies displayed promising outcomes with the clinical trials data encouraging the use of anti-ROR1 therapies. This paper aims to offer a comprehensive analysis of the current landscape of ROR1-targeted therapies in hematological malignancies marking the innovative approaches with promising preclinical and clinical. Offering a better understanding of structural and functional aspects of ROR1 could lead to new perspectives in targeting a wide spectrum of malignancies.
期刊介绍:
Cell Death Discovery is a multidisciplinary, international, online-only, open access journal, dedicated to publishing research at the intersection of medicine with biochemistry, pharmacology, immunology, cell biology and cell death, provided it is scientifically sound. The unrestricted access to research findings in Cell Death Discovery will foster a dynamic and highly productive dialogue between basic scientists and clinicians, as well as researchers in industry with a focus on cancer, neurobiology and inflammation research. As an official journal of the Cell Death Differentiation Association (ADMC), Cell Death Discovery will build upon the success of Cell Death & Differentiation and Cell Death & Disease in publishing important peer-reviewed original research, timely reviews and editorial commentary.
Cell Death Discovery is committed to increasing the reproducibility of research. To this end, in conjunction with its sister journals Cell Death & Differentiation and Cell Death & Disease, Cell Death Discovery provides a unique forum for scientists as well as clinicians and members of the pharmaceutical and biotechnical industry. It is committed to the rapid publication of high quality original papers that relate to these subjects, together with topical, usually solicited, reviews, editorial correspondence and occasional commentaries on controversial and scientifically informative issues.
