Secreted Factors Determine Resistance To Idelalisib In Marginal Zone Lymphoma Models Of Resistance

Background. PI3Kδ is expressed in B-cells and has a central role in the B-cell receptor signaling in B-cell derived malignancies. Idelalisib was the first-in-class PI3Kδ inhibitors and several second-generation compounds are undergoing clinical investigation as single agents and in combinations. To identify modalities to overcome the resistance that develops to this class of agents, we have developed two idelalisib-resistant models derived from splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) cell lines.
