Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) is the most common blood cancer in adults. Although 2 out of 3 AML patients go into total remission after chemotherapies and targeted therapies, the disease recurs in 60%–65% of younger adult patients within 3 years after diagnosis with a dramatically decreased survival rate. Therapeutic oligonucleotides are promising treatments under development for AML as they can be designed to silence oncogenes with high specificity and flexibility. However, there are not many well validated approaches for safely and efficiently delivering oligonucleotide drugs. This issue could be resolved by utilizing a new generation of delivery vehicles such as extracellular vesicles (EVs).
