Campaign objectives
  • Understand the cellular origin, causes and processes by which this disease develops.
  • Determine the cell in which the mutations occur and identify the cells that cause the recurrence of the disease.
  • Find new therapeutic targets that allow more directed and less toxic treatments.
Description

For more than 35 years, driven by the challenge of making leukemia a 100% curable disease one day, the Josep Carreras Leukaemia Foundation has been tirelessly promoting all kinds of projects to benefit patients with leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma and other blood cancers, as well as to benefit science.

Activities
  • Gather information to identify new targets and establish innovative approaches for the treatment of patients with this type of leukemia.
  • Evaluate the safety and efficacy of the treatment which is under investigation.
