New antibody shows ability to overcome treatment resistance in blood cancers and solid tumors

In a new preclinical study, researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center developed an antibody therapy called 77A that showed an ability to overcome treatment resistance in blood cancers, such as myeloma and lymphoma, as well as solid tumors.

Australian researchers pinpoint specific genetic changes linked to severe AMD

Australian researchers have for the first time pinpointed specific genetic changes that increase the risk of severe, sight-threatening forms of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Patients receiving T-cell redirecting therapies can safely be monitored at home

Patients who receive T-cell redirecting therapies are typically hospitalized for several days after treatment to watch for side effects.

New study reveals productivity losses from substance use disorder in the U.S.

A new study shows that in 2023, substance use disorders led to nearly $93 billion in lost productivity in the United States from missed work, reduced job performance, inability to work, and lost household productivity.

Physical activity may help restore ease of movement and agility during aging

The brain-chemical surge that comes with running may bolster coordination and speed in the old and young alike, a new study of middle-aged mice shows.

Enterprise Therapeutics publishes results of Phase 1 study of ETD001, a novel inhaled ENaC blocker for treatment of Cystic Fibrosis, in The Journal of Cystic Fibrosis

Enterprise Therapeutics Ltd (Enterprise), a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery and development of novel therapies to improve the lives of people with respiratory diseases, today announced the publication of a peer reviewed study in The Journal of Cystic Fibrsosis.

Routine blood test may flag hidden osteoporosis risk, study finds

A large hospital-based cross-sectional study examined whether routinely measured serum alkaline phosphatase can indicate osteoporosis risk in adults undergoing health checks. Higher ALP levels, even within the normal range, were associated with greater osteoporosis likelihood, particularly in younger, female, and metabolically healthy individuals.

A 36-week screening strategy safely reduces pre-eclampsia at term

Screening pregnant women at 36 weeks using a validated risk model and offering risk-stratified planned early-term birth reduced the incidence of term pre-eclampsia by about 30 percent without increasing maternal or neonatal complications. The randomised PREVENT-PE trial demonstrates that a personalised timing-of-birth strategy can prevent term pre-eclampsia where no effective medical prevention currently exists.

Laughing gas shows fast antidepressant effects in early clinical trials

A systematic review and meta-analysis in eBioMedicine shows that nitrous oxide can rapidly reduce depressive symptoms within hours, particularly at higher doses, but effects are short-lived after single treatments. Repeated dosing appears to extend and strengthen antidepressant benefits, although the current evidence is based on small, early-phase trials with limited long-term safety data.

Genome-edited immune cell therapy shows promise for treating aggressive blood cancer

A groundbreaking new treatment using genome-edited immune cells, developed by scientists at UCL (University College London) and Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH), has shown promising results in helping children and adults fight a rare and aggressive form of blood cancer called T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL).

Powerful prognostic marker could enable early identification of high-risk cancer patients

Aggressive T-cell lymphoma is a rare and devastating form of blood cancer with a very low five-year survival rate.

Combination therapy may boost survival for people with aggressive lymphoma

A new clinical trial suggests that pairing bispecific antibodies and antibody-drug conjugates with CAR T-cell therapy may sharply boost one-year progression-free survival for people with aggressive lymphoma.

Study reveals new genetic insights into reticular pseudodrusen in people with AMD

A study funded in part by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has revealed important insights into the genetics of deposits in the eye, known as reticular pseudodrusen (RPD), that are linked to greater risk of vision loss among people with age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Unified EEG imaging method improves accuracy in identifying epileptogenic zones

A new advance from Carnegie Mellon University researchers could reshape how clinicians identify the brain regions responsible for drug-resistant epilepsy.

Lymphocyte levels help predict outcomes after CAR T-cell therapy in non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Measuring the lymphocytes - white blood cells that fight infection - in a patient's blood can be used to predict outcomes in non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients who receive CAR T-cell therapy, according to research from physicians at Fox Chase Cancer Center and Temple Health.

Most T-cell/histocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma patients can safely receive a less toxic treatment

Most patients with a rare and aggressive form of large B-cell lymphoma can safely receive a less toxic treatment than the intensive chemotherapy often used, according to new research from Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.

Lubiprostone shows signs of slowing kidney function decline in chronic kidney disease

In adults with stage IIIb–IV chronic kidney disease, the constipation drug lubiprostone did not reduce gut-derived uremic toxins but preserved creatinine-based kidney function over 24 weeks. The benefit was linked to microbiome remodeling, increased polyamine production, and improved mitochondrial function rather than toxin lowering.

Poor dietary iron weakens lung memory T cells after flu infection

Dietary iron deficiency in mice alters lung T cell activation during influenza infection and leads to memory T cells that are present in normal or increased numbers but have impaired antiviral cytokine responses. These functional deficits are most pronounced in lung CD8-positive memory T cells and persist even under optimal recall conditions.

AI method could help clinicians accurately identify brain tumors and radiation necrosis

While targeted radiation can be an effective treatment for brain tumors, subsequent potential necrosis of the treated areas can be hard to distinguish from the tumors on a standard MRI.

UCI MIND secures major funding for new Alzheimer's research facility

With a $50 million lead gift from the Quilter family and approximately $30 million in new commitments, the University of California, Irvine's Institute for Memory Impairments and Neurological Disorders will begin planning to build a state-of-the-art research and care facility to enhance its position as a global leader in Alzheimer's disease and related dementias research and patient care.
