By Yi Whan-woo Three Army officers and an enlisted soldier have donated bone marrow to patients with blood cancer, according to the Army, Wednesday.

We are pleased to receive orphan drug designation for AUTO3 for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia,” said Dr Christian Itin, chairman and chief executive officer of Autolus.

The shift revealed this population of vascular cells as being responsible under normal circumstances for triggering most of the production of the two major white blood cell types, T cells and B cells, in bone marrow.

GLASGOW, Scotland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TC BioPharm (TCB), a developer of allogeneic CAR-T immuno-oncology products, and leaders in Gamma Delta T (GDT) cell therapies, today announced it has initiated a Phase I clinical study of TCB002, an allogeneic cell therapy consisting of activated and expanded gamma delta T cells.

Cincinnati Children's This image shows leukemia cells that scientists studied to identify potential treatment targets for a very aggressive form of the blood cancer, acute myeloid leukemia (AML.

UPMC joins clinical trial for leukemia treatment.

Doctors told him that not only was he in organ failure, but that he also had leukemia, a type of blood cancer.

LONDON, April 23, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Autolus Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: AUTL), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing next-generation programmed T cell therapies for the treatment of cancer, announced that the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted orphan drug designation to autologous enriched T-cells genetically modified with a retroviral vector to express two chimeric antigen receptors targeting CD19 and CD22 (AUTO3) for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

ALL occurs when the bone marrow makes too many immature lymphocytes, which are a type of white blood cell.

She says the team next plans to evaluate the effects of other sources of stress — aging, blood cancers, and blood infections — on blood cell production and immune function, and what happens both inside and outside of the bone marrow.

Many individuals forced to fight an exceptionally aggressive form of the blood cancer acute myeloid leukemia (AML) don’t survive more than five years.

Having the integral roles during clonal evolution in leukemia [ 26 – 28 ], the epigenetic mechanisms are considered as ideal candidates to be analyzed for scrutinizing the process of the leukemia initiation and progression.

Overlooked molecular machine in cell nucleus may hold key to treating aggressive leukemia.

Spliceosome Misconnects Generate Mutant Gene/Protein that Fuel Cancerous Cells Monday, April 22, 2019 Many individuals forced to fight an exceptionally aggressive form of the blood cancer acute myeloid leukemia (AML) don't survive more than five years.

CINCINNATI, April 22, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Many individuals forced to fight an exceptionally aggressive form of the blood cancer acute myeloid leukemia (AML) don't survive more than five years. The only cure—a bone marrow transplant—often isn't suitable for these very sick patients. Now, an international team of scientists report in Nature Cell Biology on a long-overlooked part of a leukemic cell's internal machinery called the spliceosome, where they found a hyperactive form of a protein called IRAK4 that sends cells on a cancer-causing frenzy. When they targeted the hyperactive form of IRAK4 in laboratory tests to block its function in AML cells, and in patient AML cells transplanted...

LLS funds lifesaving blood cancer research around the world, provides free information and support services, and is the voice for all blood cancer patients seeking access to quality, affordable, coordinated care.

Condition : Acute Myeloid Leukemia Interventions : Drug: Atezolizumab; Drug: Hu5F9-G4 Sponsor : Hoffmann-La Roche Not yet recruiting.

A lot of patients with leukemia and other disorders often have TET2 mutations, which neutralize the gene.

Splicing the innate immune signalling in leukaemia. Splicing the innate immune signalling in leukaemia, Published online: 22 April 2019; doi:10.1038/s41556-019-0323-4. Components of the spliceosome are frequently mutated in haematopoietic malignancies.
