Inhibition of SMO through genetic knockdown or with a potent, selective SMO inhibitor, Glasdegib, reduces the survival of cells from nonresponder patients. Notably, SMO inhibition also sensitizes TKI-nonresponder stem/progenitor cells to Bostutinib, a second-generation TKI, both in vitro and in a patient-derived xenotransplantation (PDX) model. These findings present a promising therapeutic target and a model for curative combination therapies in stem-cell-driven cancers.

Treatment of JAK2V617F driven myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) with Ruxolitinib (JAK inhibitor, JAKi) has shown limited disease-modifying benefits and has led to the search for other pathways as potential therapeutic targets for this disease. Finally, we found that SMO inhibitor blocks bone marrow fibrosis by reducing TGF-β signaling. In conclusion, this report provides critical insight into the mechanism of action of SMO inhibitors in JAK2V617F associated MPN.
