KaCrole Higgins was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020. “In May 2020, I found a lump in my breast. I cried. By June, it was diagnosed as breast cancer, triple positive, stage 1A. While getting this cancer diagnosis was devastating, it also became an opportunity. Suddenly, the cancer gave me clarity. It gave me clarity about what was important, what was good in my life, what was toxic in my life, and what I needed to do.” Click below to read more of KaCrole’s story

If Landon Ryan had been diagnosed with bilateral retinoblastoma 10, 20 or 30 years ago, she might not be here today with nearly perfect vision.Thanks to recent improvements in the treatment for this rare form of cancer that almost exclusively affects children under the age of 5, the diagnosis had the power to change Landon’s life when she was 11 months old, but not to take it — or her eyesight.

A Study of Engineered Donor Grafts (Orca-T) in Recipients Undergoing Allogeneic Transplantation for Hematologic Malignancies

Multiple Cancer Types

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of an engineered donor graft
("Orca-T", a T-cell-Depleted Graft With Additional Infusion of Conventional T Cells and
Regulatory T Cells) in participants undergoing myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic cell
transplant transplantation for hematologic malignancies.

Selinexor and Venetoclax in Combination with Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Acute Leukemia of Ambiguous Lineage

Multiple Cancer Types

This phase I trial evaluates the side effects and best dose of selinexor and venetoclax in combination with chemotherapy in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or acute leukemia of ambiguous linage that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Selinexor may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking CRM1, which help the body's immune system to find and kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Colony-stimulating factors, such as granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, may increase the production of blood cells and may help the immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. Giving venetoclax and selinexor with chemotherapy may help control the disease in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage.

A Study to Evaluate INCA033989 Administered in Participants With Myeloproliferative Neoplasms

Leukemia

This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicity
(DLT) and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended dose(s) for expansion
(RDE) of INCA033989 administered in participants with myeloproliferative neoplasms.

FHD-286 as Monotherapy or Combination Therapy in Subjects With Advanced Hematologic Malignancies

Multiple Cancer Types

This Phase 1, multicenter, open-label, dose escalation study is designed to assess the
safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary clinical
activity of FHD-286 administered orally as monotherapy or combination therapy, in subjects
with advanced hematologic malignancies.
