As of 2026-09-14

DNA topoisomerase 2-alpha shows approved-linked disease relevance led by acute myeloid leukemia. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 6 linked drugs keep the current disease frame grounded. Protein identity stays anchored to UniProt P11388. Start with acute myeloid leukemia, then reuse UniProt P11388 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.

acute myeloid leukemia

DNA topoisomerase 2-alpha shows approved-linked disease relevance led by acute myeloid leukemia. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 6 linked drugs remain visible in the same block.

Start review with acute myeloid leukemia because it currently carries approved-linked support. Linked drugs include DAUNORUBICIN, DAUNORUBICIN HYDROCHLORIDE, DOXORUBICIN HYDROCHLORIDE, ETOPOSIDE PHOSPHATE. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
