Exploring new targeted therapy options for acute myeloid leukaemia in babies
Looking for repurposed treatments that can fight leukaemia cells in very young children.
We have been funding expert research since 2016, aiming to ensure that every child and young person has a safe and effective treatment for their cancer, and that they can live long and happy lives post-treatment.
Looking for repurposed treatments that can fight leukaemia cells in very young children.
Looking at the early stages of leukaemia that develops after treatment for other cancers to find out what changes occur and how to fight it.
Investigating how a protein that causes relapse in acute myeloid leukaemia interacts with the genetic code, and whether these interactions could be prevented.
Investigating how a protein changes the way leukaemia cells behave in babies.
Understanding how leukaemia cells enlist immune system cells to help them survive chemotherapy.
Looking at how a process called 'cut-and-run' leads to genetic errors, and how those errors could be prevented in order to prevent relapse in childhood leukaemia.
Looking at a new subtype of leukaemia, called CML-like Ph+ALL, to see how best to diagnose and treat it.
Find out how JMML cells are able to switch off the immune system, causing relapse.
Using models to find out how high risk leukaemia cells grow and become resistant to treatment.
