Prioritise CML Candidates Before Laboratory Testing
SilicoKinase Labs combines computational screening with laboratory validation to identify small molecules that may improve response to existing Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML) treatments and help address treatment resistance.
01 · The challenge
Drug resistance in CML remains a major challenge.
Identifying compounds that may improve response to existing Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia treatments requires significant time, expertise, and laboratory resources. At the same time, there are vast numbers of potential molecules that could be explored.
Computational screening can help drug-discovery teams prioritise promising candidates before laboratory testing, allowing experimental resources to be focused on compounds with greater potential for further investigation.
02 · Our Approach

05 · LOOKING TO THE FUTURE
Long-term Vision
Rather than focusing only on entirely new drugs, SilicoKinase Labs is exploring the potential of sensitising compounds that could be combined with established TKI therapies. By identifying compounds that may enhance the response to existing treatments, our longer-term vision is to develop combination strategies that could help address treatment resistance while building on therapies that are already established.
This could create opportunities to:
Improve the response to existing TKI therapies
Explore new approaches to treatment resistance
Potentially extend the therapeutic benefit of established treatments
Develop differentiated combination-treatment strategies
Create additional value around existing therapies
LET'S TALK
How does your organisation decide what to test next?
We're speaking with professionals working in pharmaceutical R&D, oncology biotechnology, and drug-discovery organisations to better understand how potential compounds are identified, prioritised, and progressed to laboratory testing.
If this is relevant to your work, we would welcome the opportunity to learn more about your experience, current challenges, and decision-making processes.
