Published purpose

This project involves the preparation of gene therapy transporters for the enhancement of cancer patient immune response. These delivery systems will be used to specifically target cell models of leukemia. This could help to open the door to treatments that are not as generally debilitating to patients. It is of particular interest to target leukemia which have relapsed or returned after initial treatment.
