•AHI-1/Ahi-1 is down-regulated during normal hematopoietic cell differentiation.
•AHI-1 is highly deregulated in CML stem/progenitor cells, indicating a possible cooperative activity in leukemia development.

• Not FDA approved• High toxicity in NBM• Need to find alternative drug with similar
mechanism of PP2A inhibition
Hypothesis and Objective
• Hypothesis• A new PP2A inhibitor, to selectively target and destabilize
multiple AHI-1-mediated complexes, including AHI-1-BCR-ABL-β-catenin-PP2A, in combination with new TKIs, is more effective in eliminating leukemic stem cells, a population highly resistant to current TKI monotherapy.
• Objective• To investigate role of PP2A in CML and evaluate the
therapeutic potential of two PP2A inhibitors, LB100 and LB102, alone and in combination with TKI to inhibit the growth of CML stem and progenitor cells in vitro and in vivo.
New Drugs Specifically Target PP2A and Efficacy is Affected by Expression of AHI-1

• BCR-ABL has been shown to stabilize β-Catenin in CML through tyrosine phosphorylation at y86 and y654 residues• PP2A activity supports Wnt signalling pathway leading to stabilization of β-Catenin
• Effect of dual inhibition of BCR-ABL and PP2A may converge on β-Catenin

Conclusion
• Combination of LB100 and LB102 with IM significantly inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis of IM-resistant cells.
• LB100 and LB102 induces G2-M arrest leading to mitotic catastrophe.
• Combination of LB100 and LB102 with IM affects the AHI-1-BCR-ABL-JAK2-STAT5 pathway and potentially targets β-catenin for protein degradation.
• Inhibition of PP2A leads to mitotic catastrophe. This could occur via the activation of CyclinB/CDK1 complex.
