The researches find that the A combination of two drugs keeps patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia disease-free and alive longer than the current standard of care, according to a phase-3 clinical trial of more than 500 participants conducted at Stanford Medicine and multiple other institutions. The results of the trial are likely to change how…
An immediate and well-balanced transfusion of blood components, such as platelets and red blood cells (RBCs) which, respectively form clots to stop bleeding and deliver oxygen to tissues and organs for proper function;therefore becomes crucial for their survival. Unfortunately, however, blood products may not always be in stock in case of an emergency, such as…
The researches find that the new drug is providing hope to tiny babies at risk of dying from an aggressive form of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia and could help all cancer patients. A team from Children’s Cancer Institute in Sydney has proven a ferocious form of the blood cancer that kills half the infants who contract…
The study find that the Acute lymphoblastic leukemia accounts for one in five adult leukemias, and is the most common pediatric cancer in the United States.
