CHOP researchers uncovered 15 subtypes of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, which will help to predict outcomes and guide treatment.

The Grupp Lab works to develop new molecular-based targeted cancer treatments and cell-based immunotherapies to treat leukemia and solid tumors. The team aims to develop advanced cancer treatments that are less toxic than existing therapies to treat children with high-risk malignancies.

This study enrolls patients that have been diagnosed with acute leukemia associated with a KMT2A (MLL) gene rearrangement (referred to as KMT2Arearranged, or KMT2A-R).

CHOP in collaboration with AbbVie, is conducting a study for pediatric patients from 1 year of age to 25 years of age with relapsed or refractory aggressive mature B-cell neoplasms (including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Burkitt and Burkitt-like lymphoma/leukemia).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Cart 19 cells therapy as measured by overall remission rate, which includes Complete Remission and Complete Remission with incomplete blood count recovery assessment in infants to adults.

The overall goals of this study are to find the best dose of bosutinib that we can give safely, and to find out what effects, good and/or bad, bosutinib has on children and adolescents with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML).
