Brief description For some leukaemias drugs that target the causative genetic lesion are available and safe. Despite this, patients still relapse and die of leukaemia. In ALL 20% of children and 55% of adults will die of their disease. There is an urgent need to fully understand disease persistence, drug sensitivity, and relapse in these diseases and proactively bring to the clinic strategies to avert these deadly scenarios.
