Funded Activity Summary

Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) is an aggressive blood cancer. There are many types of AML, but overall, less than half of those with AML are cured. This project evaluates how certain molecules on the surfaces of leukaemic cells keep those cells alive and growing. We are also testing new ways to block these molecules and so provide new therapies for this cancer.
