Discovery offers a breakthrough approach to combat prostate tumor growth

Prostate cancer relies on genetic "switches", called enhancers, that can turn on tumor-promoting genes.

Epigenetic editing enables safer and more effective T cell therapies

Arc Institute, Gladstone Institutes, and University of California, San Francisco, scientists have developed an epigenetic editing platform that enables safe modification of multiple genes in primary human T cells, addressing a key manufacturing and scalability challenge in next-generation cell therapies.

HCS-3DX platform enables large-scale, high-precision screening of cellular models

The HCS-3DX platform performs automated analysis of three-dimensional cell cultures, known as spheroids.

Researchers develop a novel approach to monitor CD8⁺ T cell activity over time

The ability of immune cells-particularly CD8+ T cells-to launch a rapid burst of proliferation inside tumors is key to the success of modern day cancer immunotherapies.

New discovery could someday help prevent breast cancer recurrence

Know someone who's been diagnosed with breast cancer? There's a good chance that person has received hormone therapy.

21 Oct 2025

New AI-driven approach identifies treatments to reprogram and destroy cancer stem cells

Scientists at University of California San Diego have developed a new approach to destroying cancer stem cells – hard-to-find cells that help cancers spread, come back after treatment and resist therapy.

Scientists uncover a key mechanism that protects the skin from harmful inflammation

Researchers at VIB and Ghent University have uncovered a key mechanism that protects the skin from harmful inflammation.

Researchers develop a new approach for treating children with neuroblastoma

A research team from the University of Zurich and the University Children's Hospital Zurich has developed a new approach for treating children with malignant tumors of the nervous system.

Study provides a new approach for the treatment of prostate tumors

An international research team led by the Medical University of Vienna has demonstrated for the first time that thyroid hormone plays a key role in the development and progression of prostate cancer.

Largest trial of adjuvant pembrolizumab in Merkel cell carcinoma reports key benefit

A new cancer clinical trial by the ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group (ECOG-ACRIN) shows that a drug that utilizes the body's immune system to target and eliminate cancer cells appeared to reduce the risk of distant metastases for an aggressive form of skin cancer when given immediately after surgery, but did not significantly reduce the overall risk of recurrence, which was a co-primary endpoint of the trial.

Researchers engineer a tool to dismantle cancer's RNA-built growth hubs

In a city, coworking hubs bring people and ideas together. Inside cancer cells, similar hubs form-but instead of fueling progress, they supercharge disease. That's what researchers at the Texas A&M University Health Science Center (Texas A&M Health) have discovered inside the cells of a rare and aggressive kidney cancer.

Novel combination therapy shows promise for advanced neuroendocrine tumors

A novel combination therapy pairing a DNA-synthesis inhibitor with a targeted radiopharmaceutical may improve outcomes for patients with advanced neuroendocrine tumors, according to new clinical trial data presented this week at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2025.

21 Oct 2025

Belzutifan demonstrates strong clinical activity in two rare neuroendocrine tumors

A multicenter Phase II clinical trial led by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center demonstrated significant tumor shrinkage and disease control in patients with advanced pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL), two rare and potentially life-threatening neuroendocrine tumors.

Oral combination regimen improves survival in ER-positive HER-2-negative breast cancer

Patients with estrogen-receptor-positive HER-2-negative advanced breast cancer showed significantly improved progression-free survival when treated with an oral combination regimen that includes giredestrant, a novel, next-generation selective estrogen receptor degrader and full antagonist, compared to a standard combination approach.

CRATERs identified as key sites for T cell-mediated tumor destruction

Like the surface of the moon, new research published today in Cell finds the existence of craters on the surface of melanoma cells that serve as immune hubs, becoming major sites for tumor killing. These craters could serve as good markers for immunotherapy success.

Research reveals how immune cells orchestrate the release of toxic granules

When immune cells strike, precision is everything. New research reveals how natural killer and T cells orchestrate the release of toxic granules – microscopic packages that destroy virus-infected or cancerous cells.

17 Oct 2025

New insights into how bacteria can drive treatment resistance in oral and colorectal cancer

Researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered a previously unknown mechanism that explains how bacteria can drive treatment resistance in patients with oral and colorectal cancer.

16 Oct 2025

New personalized therapy boosts tamoxifen effectiveness in breast cancer patients

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide (WHO, 2023). The Dr. Margarete Fischer-Bosch Institute of Clinical Pharmacology (IKP) has now developed a new therapy in a clinical study that tailors hormone treatment for breast cancer to the individual patient.

16 Oct 2025

Thymic health found to predict immunotherapy success in cancer patients

The health of the thymus - a key part of the body's immune system - is associated with cancer patients' outcomes to immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment, according to a ground-breaking international study reported at ESMO 2025.

16 Oct 2025

Uncovering a molecular weakness in Ewing sarcoma for targeted therapy

A research team at the Seville Biomedical Institute (IBis) has identified a new molecular mechanism that explains the high sensitivity of Ewing sarcoma (an aggressive bone cancer that mainly affects children and adolescents) to certain chemotherapy drugs, such as irinotecan.
