Exciting breakthrough in AML research from The ICR and fantastic to see a promising new treatment option for patients.

This is why, every day, we are working to fund research which could lead to life-changing discoveries. 💡

‘Billie The Brave' was diagnosed with ALL in November 2022. Since then, she’s endured five rounds of chemotherapy and is unable to talk after one round paralysed her vocal cords. But her family say her “superhuman fighting spirit” is inspirational. 🧡

Fantastic to hear that MPs have voted in favour of increasing the age of sale of tobacco. Smoking can cause at least 15 different types of cancer, including acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), which is why we're proud to support Cancer Research UK Policy's #SmokefreeUK campaign.🚭

We’re calling on the UK Government to invest more funding into AML research - and we need your help! 🙏

Submit our letter to your local MP in time for AML World Awareness Day (21st April) and help us demand better for those affected by AML: leukaemiauk.eaction.org.uk/AMLDay

We are pleased to support the Cancer52 manifesto launch today. Thank you Jake Andrade for joining us to discuss the challenges and the improvements needed for less common and rare cancers such as leukaemia.

Exciting news in the blood cancer world 👇

Sanofi progresses its NK cell engager SAR443579 / IPH6101 to Phase 2 trials, marking a positive step in clinical research. This collaboration with Innate Pharma brings hope for safer and more effective treatments.

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) has one of the worst survival rates among any type of cancer. Just 13.6% survive beyond five years after diagnosis. 😢

This Sunday (21st April) marks AML World Awareness Day. Please RT and help us raise awareness of this devastating disease #KnowAML

Wishing the best of luck to Kitty’s Light in the #GrandNational2024 - a horse which “brought joy back” into the Williams’ lives after little Betsy was diagnosed with leukaemia. 🧡

Brilliant news for the treatment of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-cell ALL) in children and young adults! However, more needs to be done to ensure this drug can be accessed by all, and to explore whether it should become available at diagnosis (not just after relapse).

Great to see Emmerdale raising awareness of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) in their latest storyline, and well done to our friends Leukaemia Care for working with the writers to ensure the storyline reflects the reality of a leukaemia diagnosis. 🧡

Great to hear that so many cancer patients have had early access to new treatments, including CAR-T therapy to treat leukaemia. In our manifesto, we call on the next government to do more to ensure all eligible patients in the UK can access this treatment.

🎉 Incredible to see Medical Research Council funding £2.3m to researchers Cardiff University to pioneer AML treatment – the leukaemia type with a shockingly low five-year survival.

We hope to see more research funding like this to save & improve the lives of leukaemia patients
