Targeting the Residual Leukemia Cells after Chemotherapy

Ly P Vu et al. Cancer Cell. .

Abstract

One of the biggest challenges in treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is relapse of aggressive disease after treatment. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Boyd et al. characterize a molecularly distinct population of chemotherapy-induced transient leukemic regenerating cells (LRCs), which can be exploited to prevent AML recurrence.
