Immunotherapy shows promise in preventing leukemia relapse
Group of 12 high-risk patients who received engineered T cells after bone marrow transplant still in remission after more than two years
Dec. 5, 2016 | By Susan Keown / Fred Hutch News Service
For patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia, relapse after bone marrow transplant signals a low chance of survival. But results from a small trial of genetically engineered immune cells show promise for keeping these patients out of danger: Of the 12 AML patients who received this experimental T-cell therapy after a transplant put their disease in remission, all are still in remission after a median follow-up of more than two years.
Investing in the future
Five researchers get surprise grants through new President’s Young Investigator Awards
June 27, 2016 | By Sabin Russell / Fred Hutch News Service
This spring, five “young investigators” working at the Seattle cancer research center ― or soon to join it ― received entirely unexpected notes from Fred Hutch president and director Dr. Gary Gilliland. And the notes carried a bigger surprise. Each scientist had been awarded a $100,000 grant for “unrestricted” research in their laboratories.

New clues to treating deadly skin cancer
Small clinical trial finds two forms of immunotherapy may be better than one for treating metastatic melanoma
June 6, 2016 | By Rachel Tompa / Fred Hutch News Service
Matthew Flood, a retired EMT from the Tacoma Fire Department, is one of 10 patients with metastatic melanoma treated with an experimental combination of immunotherapies between 2011 and 2013. In a study published today in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, the research team described the small clinical trial and how the patients have fared in the years following their treatment. Flood is now in complete remission five years after receiving the combo immunotherapy.
Tailoring immune cells to target leukemia
Promising early trial results show engineered immune cells may help buffer against cancer relapse after bone marrow transplantation
April 21, 2016 | By Sabrina Richards / Fred Hutch News Service
Dr. Phil Greenberg’s team at Fred Hutch has developed methods to genetically modify T cells, a type of immune cell, to specifically seek out cancer cells while they ignore healthy cells. On Wednesday, he presented results of an early-stage trial at the American Association for Cancer Research annual conference in New Orleans that appear to show promise in preventing disease relapse after blood stem cell transplantation.
