Phase 2 study shows safety and efficacy of new drug in men with high-risk prostate cancers

A new drug, a monoclonal antibody known as enoblituzumab, is safe in men with aggressive prostate cancer and may induce clinical activity against cancer throughout the body, according to a phase 2 study led by investigators at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center and its Bloomberg~Kimmel Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy.

Long-term pancreatic cancer survivors’ microbiomes have increased levels of specific bacteria

Even as pancreatic cancer treatments improve, only about 9% of patients survive past five years. Researchers have searched unsuccessfully to find genetic differences that explain why some patients survive long term and some do not and have now shifted their focus to the gut microbiome.

Researchers develop a biosensor for real time detection of the G-protein molecular switch

DGIST (President: Kook Yang) announced on March 16th that the research team led by Professor Byung-Chang Suh has investigated for the first time the real-time effect of the G-protein cycle, which acts as a switch in our body, on the structural changes in G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).

Clockwork in cancer: the importance of the circadian rhythm in the formation and progression of tumors

Researchers reviewed the importance of the circadian rhythm in the formation and progression of tumors.

Newly found strategy used by metastasized tumors may explain why some promising immunotherapies fail

Cancer that has spread to areas like the lungs can apply the brakes to a natural pathway that should recruit killer T cells directly to where it has metastasized, scientists report.

CD9-positive exosomes inhibit the growth of malignant melanoma, study suggests

Malignant melanoma is a relatively aggressive type of skin cancer. When detected early, it is usually treatable by surgical resection only, but metastases develop often spreading to distant areas.

Targeting the STING pathway with a combination strategy promotes antitumor activity

Immunotherapies have greatly improved the outcomes of many patients with melanoma. But there is still a need for new approaches for the subset of patients who do not respond well to this type of therapy.

Circadian rhythms govern cancer progression and metastasis

Your circadian rhythm doesn't just govern your sleeping schedule; it can also impact cancer development, diagnosis, and treatment.

Advanced surgical therapy proves to be effective for patients with uveal melanoma liver metastases

An advanced surgical therapy has proved considerably more efficacious than conventional treatments for patients with melanoma in the eye (uveal) that has spread to the liver, a University of Gothenburg study shows.

Drug combination may reduce the risk of prostate cancer progression, death

TALAPRO-2, a study led by Neeraj Agarwal, MD, FASCO, demonstrated that using TALZENNA, in combination with XTANDI, may reduce the risk of disease progression or death by 37%.

Trial shows encouraging results for neoadjuvant dual immunotherapy and chemotherapy in patients with resectable NSCLC

In a Phase II trial led by researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, adding ipilimumab to a neoadjuvant, or pre-surgical, combination of nivolumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy, resulted in a major pathologic response (MPR) in half of all treated patients with early-stage, resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
