Based on progress to date, Dr. Davis was awarded a new grant in 2014 to fund an optional third year of this fellowship. Cancer affects teenagers and young adults more often than young children, but these in-between aged people have lower survival rates than yonger children. There aren't many doctors that specialize in treating these patients, but that is exactly what Dr. Davis is training to do. As part of this training, she is studying a bone cancer that occurs in teens. This same cancer affects pet dogs, too. She is testing drugs in a lab to see which ones kill the most tumor cells and then investigatimg why they work, in hopes that it will help both kids and dogs with this tumor live longer.

Anur Praveen M.D., M.P.H.

Adaptive cell therapy involves engineering the body's own immune cells, called T-cells, to fight cancer. The T-cells are engineered to target a protein which is present only in the cancer cells, but not in normal cells. One such protein, WT-1 is expressed only in leukemia cells and has proven to be an effective target, for a specific type of T cells called CD8 T-cells. However, these CD8 T-cells do not persist and leukemias recur. Dr. Anur Praveen, PartnerRe St. Baldrick's Fellow, is studying whether another type of T-cells called CD4 T-cells alone can eradicate leukemia or these CD4 T cells can help the CD8 T-cells to last longer and fight leukemia without recurrence. This grant is named for PartnerRe, a global reinsurance company who has raised over $1 million to fund childhood cancer research through the St. Baldrick’s Foundation.
