Combined MEK and JAK/STAT3 pathway inhibition effectively decreases SHH medulloblastoma tumor progression

RNA sequencing of MEK inhibitor (selumetinib)-treated tumors reveals an upregulation of the JAK/STAT3 pathway, with combinatorial therapeutic strategies of JAK/STAT3 inhibitors and selumetinib investigated for the SHH subgroup of medulloblastoma.
