- The U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) has awarded a $3,480,276 Project Grant under the Cancer Treatment Research program (CFDA 93.395) to Seattle Children's Hospital, doing business as Seattle Children's Research Institute. The funding will support a 4-year research initiative to systematically uncover the genomic heterogeneity of pediatric and adolescent/young adult Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) and ABL-class Ph-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The overarching goals are to...
- This $495,715 Project Grant awarded by the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) supports research by the Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research to decipher the pathogenesis and therapeutic vulnerabilities of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) driven by germline RUNX1 mutations. The project aims to develop faithful preclinical models, including genetically engineered mouse models and patient-derived xenografts, to study the genetic events and disease progression from...
- The National Cancer Institute (NCI), under the Cancer Biology Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.396), awarded a $530,106 Project Grant to the Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. The grant, awarded on September 11, 2025, supports research aimed at understanding and targeting polyamine metabolism in leukemia stem cells (LSCs) to improve outcomes for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The overarching goal is to develop LSC-directed therapies that can help overcome...
- The National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) awarded a $1,625,853 Project Grant to New York University (NYU) on December 13, 2024. The grant will support NYU's research to map and characterize the role of 3D "hubs" - regulatory DNA elements that interact with multiple loci - in the context of T-cell leukemia (T-ALL), early T-cell progenitor leukemia (ETP-ALL), and T-cell lymphoma. The project aims to better define how these 3D chromatin structures are rewired...
- This $683,472 Project Grant awarded by the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) supports the development of a novel targeted therapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The principal investigators at the University of Cincinnati are conducting preclinical research to evaluate a differentiation-inducing agent (HOSU-53) that targets the mitochondrial enzyme DHODH. The goal is to promote AML cell differentiation, activate the immune system, and induce ferroptosis to...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.398 - Cancer Research Manpower) provides $342,102.00 to The Johns Hopkins University to elucidate the role of the chromatin regulator HMGA1 in KMT2A-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia (AML). KMT2A-rearranged AML is an aggressive form of leukemia that is resistant to current therapies. The project aims to investigate how HMGA1 drives leukemogenesis and therapy resistance in this disease, with the goal of informing the...
- This five-year $360,281 Project Grant from the National Cancer Institute, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, will fund research under the Cancer Biology Research program (CFDA 93.396). The grantee, Washington University, will conduct studies to define the contribution of altered epigenetic patterns and genome organization to the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Researchers will perform comprehensive epigenetic analysis of DNA methylation and three-dimensional...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) provides $483,760 to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania to conduct research on understanding the role of the DCAF15 protein in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The primary objectives are to (A) decipher the biological function of DCAF15 in myeloid development and leukemia in vivo, (B) investigate the role of cohesin acetylation in AML pathogenesis, and (C) develop small molecule...
- This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) supports fundamental research aimed at understanding the biological mechanisms underlying acute myeloid leukemia (AML) development and progression. The $487,973 award to The Leland Stanford Junior University will fund a 5-year project investigating the role of pre-leukemic hematopoietic stem cells (pHSCs) in AML pathogenesis. The research will explore the clonal evolution, kinetics, and cell...
- This federal Project Grant award of $344,111.00 was provided by the National Cancer Institute under the Cancer Biology Research program (CFDA 93.396) to Loyola University of Chicago's Health Sciences Campus division. The grant supports research aimed at understanding the fundamental biological mechanisms of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), a group of bone marrow failure diseases that can transform into acute myeloid leukemia. The research focuses on targeting "panoptotic pathways" -...
