Inhibitor could treat range of hematologic disorders

“Our hope is that this drug will enable more effective treatment to begin earlier and that, with earlier intervention, we can alter the course of disease and remove the need for, or improve the chances of success with, bone marrow transplantation,” Dr Jamieson said. “It’s all about reducing the burden of disease by intervening early.”
