Read moreKiller antibodies against AML
Most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can only be cured when a stem cell transplant induces an immune response against the patient’s leukemia.
Read moreNovel basis for chemoresistance in AML: DNMT3A R882 mutations promote chemoresistance and residual disease through impaired DNA damage sensing
Although most acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients initially respond to chemotherapy, the majority subsequently relapses and succumbs to refractory disease. Residual leukemic cells that survived chemotherapy may persist over time and later cause the disease to come back.
Read moreNew GFI1B variants in bleeding and platelet disorders
Platelets restrict blood loss upon vessel damage by formation of a clot (thrombus). Recently, we reported a family with a bleeding and platelet disorder (BPD), which was caused by a defect in the gene GFI1B1.
Read moreFirst randomized evidence for kinase inhibitor activity in acute myeloid leukemia
