GENERAL CONCLUSIONS
bull The parallel development of novel epigenetic drugs and the discovery of multiple oncogenic dependencies epigenetic antagonisms and synthetic lethal relationships has open a new era in epigenetic targeting of solid tumors (CONTEXT)
bull Therapeutic targeting of epigenetic dysfunction may not be limited to the use of epigenetic drugs the role of epigenetic regulation in orchestrating other essential cellular processes such as DNA repair or immunity and connection with metabolism opens additional therapeutic opportunities (BROADER IMPACT)
bull Connections with suppression of tumor-induced inflammation suggests that approaches targeting the anti-tumor immunity or tumor micro-environment might deserve further exploration
FUTURE CHALLENGES
bull tissue- andor subunit-dependent and epigenetic antagonism or synthetic lethal relationships observed in one system may not be translatable to another gt evaluation in the tumor type of interest
bull epigenetic drugs as monotherapy for oligoclonal diseases where the epigenetic alteration serves as oncogenic driver (mostly pediatric hematologic or selected solid malignancies) in polyclonal tumors where the epigenetic alteration is a favoring permissive or secondary event combinations with conventional chemotherapies targeted therapies or immune therapies may be required
bull inhibiting the catalytic activity of some subunitsmdashsuch as EZH2mdashmight not be sufficient to reach a full anti-tumor activity important to discriminate the contribution of the non-catalytic activity of chromatin remodelers to oncogenic events
bull primary and acquired resistance will need to be studied (notably by re-biopsing and molecularly characterizing patients tumors at the occurrence of resistance) and combinatorial approaches should be considered to address this issue
bull It should be remembered that epigenetic modifications are usually reversible

GENERAL CONCLUSIONS
bull The parallel development of novel epigenetic drugs and the discovery of multiple oncogenic dependencies epigenetic antagonisms and synthetic lethal relationships has open a new era in epigenetic targeting of solid tumors (CONTEXT)
bull Therapeutic targeting of epigenetic dysfunction may not be limited to the use of epigenetic drugs the role of epigenetic regulation in orchestrating other essential cellular processes such as DNA repair or immunity and connection with metabolism opens additional therapeutic opportunities (BROADER IMPACT)
bull Connections with suppression of tumor-induced inflammation suggests that approaches targeting the anti-tumor immunity or tumor micro-environment might deserve further exploration
FUTURE CHALLENGES
bull tissue- andor subunit-dependent and epigenetic antagonism or synthetic lethal relationships observed in one system may not be translatable to another gt evaluation in the tumor type of interest
bull epigenetic drugs as monotherapy for oligoclonal diseases where the epigenetic alteration serves as oncogenic driver (mostly pediatric hematologic or selected solid malignancies) in polyclonal tumors where the epigenetic alteration is a favoring permissive or secondary event combinations with conventional chemotherapies targeted therapies or immune therapies may be required
bull inhibiting the catalytic activity of some subunitsmdashsuch as EZH2mdashmight not be sufficient to reach a full anti-tumor activity important to discriminate the contribution of the non-catalytic activity of chromatin remodelers to oncogenic events
bull primary and acquired resistance will need to be studied (notably by re-biopsing and molecularly characterizing patients tumors at the occurrence of resistance) and combinatorial approaches should be considered to address this issue
bull It should be remembered that epigenetic modifications are usually reversible

GENERAL CONCLUSIONS
bull The parallel development of novel epigenetic drugs and the discovery of multiple oncogenic dependencies epigenetic antagonisms and synthetic lethal relationships has open a new era in epigenetic targeting of solid tumors (CONTEXT)
bull Therapeutic targeting of epigenetic dysfunction may not be limited to the use of epigenetic drugs the role of epigenetic regulation in orchestrating other essential cellular processes such as DNA repair or immunity and connection with metabolism opens additional therapeutic opportunities (BROADER IMPACT)
bull Connections with suppression of tumor-induced inflammation suggests that approaches targeting the anti-tumor immunity or tumor micro-environment might deserve further exploration
FUTURE CHALLENGES
bull tissue- andor subunit-dependent and epigenetic antagonism or synthetic lethal relationships observed in one system may not be translatable to another gt evaluation in the tumor type of interest
bull epigenetic drugs as monotherapy for oligoclonal diseases where the epigenetic alteration serves as oncogenic driver (mostly pediatric hematologic or selected solid malignancies) in polyclonal tumors where the epigenetic alteration is a favoring permissive or secondary event combinations with conventional chemotherapies targeted therapies or immune therapies may be required
bull inhibiting the catalytic activity of some subunitsmdashsuch as EZH2mdashmight not be sufficient to reach a full anti-tumor activity important to discriminate the contribution of the non-catalytic activity of chromatin remodelers to oncogenic events
bull primary and acquired resistance will need to be studied (notably by re-biopsing and molecularly characterizing patients tumors at the occurrence of resistance) and combinatorial approaches should be considered to address this issue
bull It should be remembered that epigenetic modifications are usually reversible

GENERAL CONCLUSIONS
bull The parallel development of novel epigenetic drugs and the discovery of multiple oncogenic dependencies epigenetic antagonisms and synthetic lethal relationships has open a new era in epigenetic targeting of solid tumors (CONTEXT)
bull Therapeutic targeting of epigenetic dysfunction may not be limited to the use of epigenetic drugs the role of epigenetic regulation in orchestrating other essential cellular processes such as DNA repair or immunity and connection with metabolism opens additional therapeutic opportunities (BROADER IMPACT)
bull Connections with suppression of tumor-induced inflammation suggests that approaches targeting the anti-tumor immunity or tumor micro-environment might deserve further exploration
FUTURE CHALLENGES
bull tissue- andor subunit-dependent and epigenetic antagonism or synthetic lethal relationships observed in one system may not be translatable to another gt evaluation in the tumor type of interest
bull epigenetic drugs as monotherapy for oligoclonal diseases where the epigenetic alteration serves as oncogenic driver (mostly pediatric hematologic or selected solid malignancies) in polyclonal tumors where the epigenetic alteration is a favoring permissive or secondary event combinations with conventional chemotherapies targeted therapies or immune therapies may be required
bull inhibiting the catalytic activity of some subunitsmdashsuch as EZH2mdashmight not be sufficient to reach a full anti-tumor activity important to discriminate the contribution of the non-catalytic activity of chromatin remodelers to oncogenic events
bull primary and acquired resistance will need to be studied (notably by re-biopsing and molecularly characterizing patients tumors at the occurrence of resistance) and combinatorial approaches should be considered to address this issue
bull It should be remembered that epigenetic modifications are usually reversible

GENERAL CONCLUSIONS
bull The parallel development of novel epigenetic drugs and the discovery of multiple oncogenic dependencies epigenetic antagonisms and synthetic lethal relationships has open a new era in epigenetic targeting of solid tumors (CONTEXT)
bull Therapeutic targeting of epigenetic dysfunction may not be limited to the use of epigenetic drugs the role of epigenetic regulation in orchestrating other essential cellular processes such as DNA repair or immunity and connection with metabolism opens additional therapeutic opportunities (BROADER IMPACT)
bull Connections with suppression of tumor-induced inflammation suggests that approaches targeting the anti-tumor immunity or tumor micro-environment might deserve further exploration
FUTURE CHALLENGES
bull tissue- andor subunit-dependent and epigenetic antagonism or synthetic lethal relationships observed in one system may not be translatable to another gt evaluation in the tumor type of interest
bull epigenetic drugs as monotherapy for oligoclonal diseases where the epigenetic alteration serves as oncogenic driver (mostly pediatric hematologic or selected solid malignancies) in polyclonal tumors where the epigenetic alteration is a favoring permissive or secondary event combinations with conventional chemotherapies targeted therapies or immune therapies may be required
bull inhibiting the catalytic activity of some subunitsmdashsuch as EZH2mdashmight not be sufficient to reach a full anti-tumor activity important to discriminate the contribution of the non-catalytic activity of chromatin remodelers to oncogenic events
bull primary and acquired resistance will need to be studied (notably by re-biopsing and molecularly characterizing patients tumors at the occurrence of resistance) and combinatorial approaches should be considered to address this issue
bull It should be remembered that epigenetic modifications are usually reversible

GENERAL CONCLUSIONS
bull The parallel development of novel epigenetic drugs and the discovery of multiple oncogenic dependencies epigenetic antagonisms and synthetic lethal relationships has open a new era in epigenetic targeting of solid tumors (CONTEXT)
bull Therapeutic targeting of epigenetic dysfunction may not be limited to the use of epigenetic drugs the role of epigenetic regulation in orchestrating other essential cellular processes such as DNA repair or immunity and connection with metabolism opens additional therapeutic opportunities (BROADER IMPACT)
bull Connections with suppression of tumor-induced inflammation suggests that approaches targeting the anti-tumor immunity or tumor micro-environment might deserve further exploration
FUTURE CHALLENGES
bull tissue- andor subunit-dependent and epigenetic antagonism or synthetic lethal relationships observed in one system may not be translatable to another gt evaluation in the tumor type of interest
bull epigenetic drugs as monotherapy for oligoclonal diseases where the epigenetic alteration serves as oncogenic driver (mostly pediatric hematologic or selected solid malignancies) in polyclonal tumors where the epigenetic alteration is a favoring permissive or secondary event combinations with conventional chemotherapies targeted therapies or immune therapies may be required
bull inhibiting the catalytic activity of some subunitsmdashsuch as EZH2mdashmight not be sufficient to reach a full anti-tumor activity important to discriminate the contribution of the non-catalytic activity of chromatin remodelers to oncogenic events
bull primary and acquired resistance will need to be studied (notably by re-biopsing and molecularly characterizing patients tumors at the occurrence of resistance) and combinatorial approaches should be considered to address this issue
bull It should be remembered that epigenetic modifications are usually reversible
