Despite playing a central role the treatment of B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (BCP-ALL), resistance to glucocorticoids remains a major obstacle. Here, the authors identify activation of PI3K/mTOR and CREB pathways as a driver of GC-resistance in BCP-ALL and restore sensitivity using the multi kinase inhibitor, dasatinib.
