Brief description Certain cancer cells, termed cancer-initiating cells (CICs), have special properties allowing them to drive cancer growth and disease progression. These cells are particularly sensitive to low-dose treatment with drugs called DNA methyltransferase inhibitors. Using cutting-edge "single-cell" technologies this project will determine how these drugs target CICs and identify new ways to increase treatment efficacy. This work will identify new clinical opportunities for prevention of cancer relapse.
