New drug could extend the lives of breast cancer patients
LMU researchers have successfully tested a new drug which can significantly extend the lives of breast cancer patients.
Breakthrough blood test improves early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer
An experimental blood test detects early-stage pancreatic cancer more effectively than other available tests, reports a new study published in Cancer Letters.
Researchers reveal mechanisms of how CDK12 alterations drive prostate cancer development
When researchers at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center first identified a new subtype of aggressive prostate cancer, they knew they needed to understand how this genetic alteration was driving cancer and how to target it with treatment.
Identical twins study uncovers insights into multiple sclerosis mechanisms
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease in which the immune system attacks the central nervous system.
New approach enhances radiation treatment for lung cancer brain metastases The ...
In new research, a team led by University of Cincinnati researchers has identified a potential new way to make radiation more effective and improve outcomes for patients with lung cancer that has spread to the brain.
Drug improves effectiveness of radiation for lung cancer that has spread to the brain
The University of Cincinnati's Debanjan Bhattacharya is first author of new research published in Cancers that found the drug AM-101 improves the effectiveness and survival rate of radiation treatment in animal models of lung cancer that has spread to the brain.
More under-5s ending up in hospital on hot days, creating lifelong health risks
Caregivers are being warned to be aware of the lifelong health risks that hot days can pose to children under five.
Multiple myeloma: Cilta-cel found highly effective in real-world study
A new study shows strong alignment between real-world outcomes and those seen in clinical trials among a broad population of patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. In the first study to report real-world outcomes from ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T therapy for multiple myeloma, patients experienced efficacy and safety results similar to those seen in clinical trials, according to new results.
New method harnesses light to activate neurons in the brain
University of Rochester researchers have demonstrated a noninvasive method using BL-OG, or bioluminescent optogenetics, that harnesses light to activate neurons in the brain.
