MTAP-Null Tumors: A Comprehensive Review on Synthetic Vulnerabilities and Therapeutic Strategies.

Homozygous deletion of the 9p21.3 genomic locus spanning the CDKN2A/B and MTAP genes is an event affecting 15% of cancers. While CDKN2A is a well-established tumor suppressor gene, the role of MTAP in tumorigenesis varies across cancer types. MTAP codes for methylthioadenosine phosphorylase, a key enzyme in the methionine salvage pathway, and its loss has been associated with several downstream synthetic vulnerabilities. Despite multiple efforts to exploit MTAP loss for targeted therapies, none of these efforts have yielded substantial results in clinical trials. In this review, we consolidate
