An In Vivo Genome-Wide CRISPR Screen Identifies Novel Dependencies for Blast Crisis Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

Poorly differentiated aggressive myeloid diseases such as Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) and blast crisis Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (bcCML) are often resistant to standard therapy and associated with significantly poor survival in both children and adults. There is thus a significant need for a better understanding of the mechanisms that drive disease progression and for finding novel therapeutic targets. Thus, to determine the molecular...
