Dataset could reveal better therapies for AML

In fact, the researchers are already developing and initiating clinical trials to test hypotheses generated by this study.

“You can start to sense some momentum building with new, better therapeutics for AML patients, and, hopefully, this dataset will help fuel that momentum even further,” said study author Jeff Tyner, PhD, of the OHSU School of Medicine.

“We want to parlay this information into clinical trials as much as we can, and we also want the broader community to use this dataset to accelerate their own work.”

Funding for the current study was provided by grants from The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, the National Cancer Institute, the National Library of Medicine, and other groups.
