• Resumen

  • Last week, it was announced that a 1-year-old girl called Layla has been saved from leukemia by an experimental gene therapy. It was used as a last resort after all other treatments had failed. It's too early to know whether Layla is free of cancer, or if the technique that saved her will work for others.
