Prof Topp talks to ecancertv at ASCO 2014 about the results of a multicentre phase 2 study of the BiTE antibody blinatumomab in patients with relapsed/refractory B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. The use of blinatumomab is an antibody treatment which enables chemotherapy to be bypassed in some patients.
