Study finds a pharmacological-based approach to revert immune escape of breast cancer cells

Freiburg researchers discover a mechanism by which cancer cells escape the immune system.

Lack of therapeutic markers leads to poorer outcomes in triple negative breast cancer

A new review paper was published in Oncotarget's Volume 14 on March 31, 2023, entitled, "Crosstalk between triple negative breast cancer and microenvironment."

Study provides a more accurate tool to stratify patients with HER2-positive breast cancer

Patients with a type of breast cancer called HER2-positive are less likely to survive if their initial treatment fails to eradicate the tumor completely and they have high levels of immune cells called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in the residual disease.

New therapeutic windows for developing effective treatments for metastatic tumors

Cancer that splits and develops in new organs around the body becomes significantly more difficult to fight. Now, researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have shown that these metastatic cancers, that spread from the original, adapt their metabolism to the tissue in which they grow. The discovery represents a breakthrough for the understanding of metastatic cancer and is an important piece of the puzzle in the search for more effective treatments.

Researchers find the root of immunosuppression and chemoresistance in TNBC tumors

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) tumors gain immunosuppression and chemoresistance through interactions between interleukin 34 and myeloid-derived suppressor cells, researchers find.

Newly developed chemical compounds show promise as potential anticancer therapy

A University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center researcher's team developed new chemical compounds that show promise as a potential anticancer therapy to treat aggressive tumors.

Salk's three collaborative projects win 2022 Curebound Discovery Grant

The Salk Institute's American Cancer Society Professor Tony Hunter, Professor Reuben Shaw, and Assistant Professor Graham McVicker are among 12 inaugural 2022 Discovery Grant winners.

Greater physical activity, lower sedentary time likely to reduce breast cancer risk

Boosting physical activity levels and curbing sitting time are highly likely to lower breast cancer risk, finds research designed to strengthen proof of causation and published online in the British Journal of Sports Medicine.

Study explores a potential new therapeutic approach for triple negative breast cancer treatment

Researchers are exploring a potential new therapeutic approach for triple negative breast cancer treatment.

Research identifies unique vulnerabilities in ALT cancers that can serve as novel therapeutic targets

In a study recently published in Cancer Research, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, a team of researchers led by C. Patrick Reynolds, M.D., Ph.D., director for the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center School of Medicine Cancer Center, sought to expand upon his lab's previous research that showed ALT tumors identified by a biomarker known as C-circles share a common biology that confers vulnerabilities to be exploited for cancer therapy.

Scientists find key molecular differences between breast cancer cells in initial and metastatic tumors

Studying a deadly type of breast cancer called triple negative, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have identified key molecular differences between cancer cells that cling to an initial tumor and those that venture off to form distant tumors.

Queen’s researchers receive grant from Breast Cancer Now to search for new treatments

Researchers at Queen's University Belfast have received funding from Breast Cancer Now to search for new treatments inspired by COVID-19 vaccine innovation.

Brown researchers develop an advanced way to isolate single cells from complex tissues

In cancer research, it all comes down to a single cell. Over the last decade, cancer researchers have homed in on the fact that an individual cell from a tumor can be used to perform molecular analyses that reveal important clues about how the cancer developed, how it spreads and how it may be targeted.

Biodegradable, non-ionic polymeric nanovesicles efficiently encapsulate and deliver siRNA

Small interfering RNAs, or siRNAs, hold promise to treat tumors, through their ability to specifically knock down oncogenes that promote tumor growth, without the toxicity that accompanies chemotherapy. However, the siRNAs need a delivery vehicle to protect them from degradation and clearance on their journey through the bloodstream to the cancer tumor.

Study could provide a new approach to treating metastatic triple negative breast cancer

Research from the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center could provide a new approach to treating an aggressive form of breast cancer.

$2.05 million to support UTHSC's advanced genetics project on breast cancer

A University of Tennessee Health Science Center team has received $2.05 million from the National Cancer Institute for an advanced genetics project that could help develop targeted therapies and personalized treatment for breast cancer. Liza Makowski, PhD, professor of Hematology and Oncology in the College of Medicine, is the lead investigator on the award.

Scientists create a biobank of 87 triple-negative breast cancer organoids

It's the cancer version of "mini me." Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) Professor David Spector, among others, has developed organoids, which are miniature, three-dimensional copies of cancers. Organoids can be derived from cancer or healthy cells.

New nanoparticle-based COVID-19 vaccine platform could target other infectious diseases

Just one dose of a new nanoparticle-based COVID-19 vaccine was enough to produce an immune response in animals on track with vaccines currently in clinical use.

New approach radically increases the success of breast cancer immunotherapy

A study published in the journal Nature Cancer, carried out within the Cancer Programme at the Hospital del Mar Medical Research Institute (IMIM-Hospital del Mar) by the Cancer Stem Cells and Metastasis Dynamics Laboratory, led by Dr. Toni Celià-Terrassa, and the Laboratory of Molecular Cancer Therapy, coordinated by Dr. Joan Albanell, with the participation of international centers, has discovered an approach that radically increases the success of immunotherapy in one of the most aggressive types of tumors, triple-negative breast cancer.
