Merin Mathew Fasting for Gregory Foundation

The Gregory Foundation for Cancer Research was born out of one infant's fight against infantile leukemia. Gregory was born May 11, 2016 and was diagnosed with infant Leukemia at 10 months of age. He fought the disease until 21 months of age and he passed away on March 21, 2018. Although Gregory received cutting edge immunotherapies and targeted therapies, including CART 19 and allogeneic CART, the disease was very aggressive and he lost his fight against cancer.

Gregory taught the researchers and clinicians that childhood cancer, particularly cancer in infants, need more innovative treatments that reach the clinic quicker.
