St. Jude Children's Research Hospital - ALSAC reposted this
At St. Jude, our mission to advance cures and means of prevention for pediatric catastrophic disease through research and treatment is built on the collaboration between doctors, researchers and healthcare teams. This Doctors' Day, we’re proud to celebrate the work of Seth Karol MD, who embodies this unique approach. As the principal investigator of the INITIALL clinical trial, Karol is helping shape the future of treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)—the most common pediatric cancer. With a historically high cure rate, INITIALL allows St. Jude to enroll every child in a trial, gathering critical genetic and clinical data to tailor treatments to each patient. This work ensures that children with higher-risk ALL receive the most innovative therapies, while those with lower-risk disease benefit from proven, effective medicines. Collaboration is at the heart of Karol’s work. Partnering with St. Jude’s pathology and pharmacy teams, he leverages cutting-edge genetic testing to identify the unique characteristics of each child’s leukemia. “The work here has shown us that the right approach is to take a group that looks homogenous and choose a medicine more specifically for a patient,” Karol explains. “This gives them a better chance of benefiting from that medicine without the risks of treatments they don’t need.” By connecting lab researchers with clinicians, St. Jude ensures that discoveries in the lab translate into better outcomes for children. Karol’s work exemplifies how this collaboration gives patients access to more precise and effective treatments. On Doctors' Day, we honor Karol and the many other physicians at St. Jude who dedicate their lives to advancing care for children.
