New discovery about "killer torpedoes" may be the next breakthrough in cancer treatment

In our body, we have both an innate immune system and an immune system that is developed throughout life. Part of the innate immune system consists of so-called NK cells.

Study demonstrates an age cutoff heuristic in oncology

Age-based heuristics can lead to large differences in breast cancer treatment based on small differences in chronologic age, according to a new analysis of more than 500,000 patient records.

Adding veliparib to chemotherapy can extend progression-free survival in patients with “BRCA-like” breast cancer

Results from the SWOG S1416 clinical trial show that adding veliparib to chemotherapy can significantly extend progression-free survival (PFS) times in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that has a "BRCA-like" phenotype.

Experts discover mechanism of recruitment for tumor-associated cells in lung adenocarcinoma

A team of experts from the University of Barcelona, the University of Zaragoza and Hospital Clínic de Barcelona found a mechanism of recruitment for tumour-associated cells (cancer-associated fibroblasts or CAFs) which are essential to lung adenocarcinoma, the most frequent type of cancer.

Researchers develop new way to increase the potency of cancer vaccines

A new way to significantly increase the potency of almost any vaccine has been developed by researchers from the International Institute for Nanotechnology (IIN) at Northwestern University.

New technique offers a two-prong approach to attacking cancers

When noninvasive sound waves break apart tumors, they trigger an immune response in mice. By breaking down the cell wall "cloak," the treatment exposes cancer cell markers that had previously been hidden from the body's defenses, researchers at the University of Michigan have shown.

Cancer immunotherapy does not interfere with COVID-19 immunity in vaccinated patients, study shows

Research findings published in Frontiers in Immunology show that cancer immunotherapy does not interfere with COVID-19 immunity in previously vaccinated patients.

New nanomedicine delivery system offers some hope for treating peritoneal cancer

Peritoneal cancer is difficult to treat and has a poor survival prognosis. But a new and effective nanomedicine delivery system is offering some hope.

Higher consumption of ultra-processed foods associated with greater risk of developing cancer

Higher consumption of ultra-processed foods may be linked to an increased risk of developing and dying from cancer, an Imperial College London-led observational study suggests.

Focused-ultrasound-mediated liquid biopsy improves detection of neurodegeneration biomarkers

Several progressive neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, are defined by having tau proteins in the brain.

Actin influences cancer metastases in many ways

Metastases occur when cancer cells leave a primary tumor and spread throughout the body. For this, they have to break connections with neighboring cells and migrate to other tissues.

Ants show the potential to become a fast, efficient, inexpensive, and non-invasive tool for the detection of human tumors

Researchers demonstrated the use of ants as olfactory bio-detectors of human tumors.
