Structured disease, protein, and project context should read before the lower-level identity rail.

As of 2026-09-13

Aurora kinase A shows late clinical disease relevance led by unspecified peripheral T-cell lymphoma. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug keeps the current disease frame grounded. Protein identity stays anchored to UniProt O14965. Start with unspecified peripheral T-cell lymphoma, then reuse UniProt O14965 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.

Disease program
unspecified peripheral T-cell lymphoma

Aurora kinase A shows late clinical disease relevance led by unspecified peripheral T-cell lymphoma. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug remains visible in the same block.

Start review with unspecified peripheral T-cell lymphoma because it currently carries late clinical support. Linked drugs include ALISERTIB. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
