MD Anderson Research News from AHS 2023

You or your loved one may be visiting MD Anderson for cancer treatment in the near future. Rest assured you are in good hands.

The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center is one of the world’s most top cancer centers for patient care, research, education and prevention. MD Anderson also ranks #1 in research grants awarded by the National Cancer Institute. MDA’s world-leading clinicians and scientists bring discoveries to the forefront to help patients overcome disease and prevent recurrence.

  • More effective treatment options needed for patients with relapsed/refractory aggressive large B-cell lymphoma (Abstract 309)

  • Bispecific T cell antibody is safe and merits further study for patients with AML, MDS and CMML (Abstract 322)

  • ASXL1 mutations drive resistance to donor lymphocyte infusion in leukemia (Abstract 364)

  • Tasquinimod demonstrates efficacy in preclinical models of advanced myeloproliferative neoplasms (Abstract 741)

  • Trial suggests chemotherapy could be avoided in patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (Abstract 856)
