ABSTRACT Background Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, with an overall survival now surpassing 90% in developed countries. However, treatments are not without adverse effects. In this study, we apply the severe toxicity‐free survival (STFS) framework to determine the prevalence of 21 physician‐defined severe ...

Adoptive T cell therapy for cancer in the clinic [PDF]
The transfusion of lymphocytes, referred to as adoptive T cell therapy, is being tested for the treatment of cancer and chronic infections. Adoptive T cell therapy has the potential to enhance antitumor immunity, augment vaccine efficacy, and limit graft-versus-host disease.

Generation of TCRα-transduced T cells for adoptive transfer therapy of salmonellosis in mice
Summary: Adoptive transfer therapy has great potential to treat diseases such as cancer as well as autoimmune and infectious diseases. Identification of chain-centric T cell receptors (TCRs) with the dominant-active antigen-specific α-chains (TCRα) can ...

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...

Ablation of T cell–associated PD-1H enhances functionality and promotes adoptive immunotherapy
Programmed death-1 homolog (PD-1H) is a coinhibitory molecule that negatively regulates T cell–mediated immune responses. In this study, we determined whether ablation of T cell–associated PD-1H could enhance adoptive T cell therapy in experimental tumor
