A true breakthrough in several diseases , especially cancers eg Leukemia. Costly ( $1m per treatment) but costs will decline . This is the use of your own (tweaked) immune suppression systems to fight cancers.( see TED Talks etc).

My very limited understanding is that this is some way off re MPNs because most of us have dual genes eg JAK2 % Allele Burden of mutant gene.

However I’d like some to explain to me why/whether those who are triple negative might not be possible short term targets.
