A discussion interview with Peihua Lu MD from Lu Daopei Hospital in Beijing, China and Robert Chiesa MD PhD from Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, London, UK, at the American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting in Orlando, Florida, USA
ORLANDO, USA—Children and young adults whose T-cell malignancies had become refractory to all standard treatments have been rescued by means of two different chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapies: one developed commercially in China and the other created in the laboratory of a leading children’s hospital in London by means of a new method of engineering DNA called: “base editing”.
At the 2025 American Society of Hematology annual meeting in Orlando, Florida, lead author of the Chinese study, Peihua Lu MD from Lu Daopei Hospital in Beijing and team-leader Robert Chiesa MD PhD from Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, London, UK, met up with Audio Journal of Oncology anchor, Peter Goodwin, to discuss their pioneering early studies which seem to offer hope for patients and their families.
