Study Discovers a Mechanism for Genetic Changes in Therapy-Induced Leukemia, Builds on Fox Chase History of Exploring Links Between Epigenetics, Genetics, and Cancer

In a recent study, researchers at Fox Chase Cancer Center demonstrated how amplification and rearrangement of a gene associated with leukemia known as MLL is directly controlled by epigenetic factors, providing needed insights into a new therapeutic opportunity.
