A breakthrough in precision cancer research. 🔬
At Philly Fights Cancer, we’re proud to support groundbreaking innovation from Penn Medicine and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
Researchers have developed a first-of-its-kind CRISPR-based platform that can pinpoint the genetic drivers of acute myeloid leukemia (AML)—directly within a patient’s own cancer cells. This means scientists can better understand how each individual’s cancer behaves, why some treatments stop working, and how to identify more effective, targeted therapies faster than ever before.
By unlocking how cancer operates at the genetic level, this innovation brings us one step closer to truly personalized treatment—and better outcomes for patients facing aggressive diseases like AML.
