- This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) provides funding to Case Western Reserve University to conduct research aimed at understanding the fundamental biological mechanisms of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and developing new therapeutic approaches. The $491,357 award supports investigations into using proteasome inhibitors and an mTORC1 activator molecule to induce metabolic stress and resensitize AML cells to treatment, particularly...
- 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...
- This $640,135 federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) supports research to develop a new generation of potent menin inhibitors that can overcome resistance observed in current menin inhibitor treatments for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. The award recipient, the Regents of the University of Michigan, will leverage its expertise in medicinal chemistry and cancer biology to design and test these next-generation menin...
- This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) provides $400,000 to Kure Ai Inc. to develop a novel CAR-T cell therapy product targeting the MR1 antigen expressed on the surface of various tumor cells, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and glioblastoma. The key objectives are to: 1) assess MR1 expression in primary patient AML and glioblastoma samples, 2) perform mouse efficacy studies using AML and glioblastoma models, and 3)...
- 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) Project Grant award of $274,991 to Saber Therapeutics, Inc. will support the development of a new approach to deliver cancer-killing proteins specifically to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells while sparing healthy cells. The project aims to engineer natural killer (NK) cells with targeted protein degraders (TPDs) against three common AML driver proteins. The resulting NK-TPD cells will be tested for...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) provides $415,259 to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia to conduct research on the role of long noncoding RNAs in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The project aims to 1) determine the role of a specific regulatory RNA in primary and relapsed AML, and 2) define the mechanism underlying its deregulation in AML. This research will provide insights into how noncoding RNAs...
