Engineered CAR T cells show promise against solid tumors

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, which uses a patient's own immune cells to fight cancer, has emerged as a powerful way to treat lymphoma and other blood cancers.

Genetic risk scores fail to predict survival after diagnosis

Research indicates that disease susceptibility genetics poorly predict survival, while longevity PGSs offer stronger associations with post-diagnosis mortality.

Five-session SBRT reduces side effects in intermediate-risk prostate cancer

For patients with intermediate-risk, localized prostate cancer, radiation therapy delivered in five sessions reduced patient-reported side effects compared to longer courses of radiation, according to results of a large, randomized phase III trial.

Gene expression test identifies prostate cancer patients who benefit from hormone therapy

A new randomized study finds that a lab test that reads tumor genes can identify which patients with recurrent prostate cancer will benefit from adding hormone therapy to radiation after surgery - the first predictive biomarker in this setting.

Combining radiopharmaceuticals with targeted radiation improves progression-free survival in prostate cancer patients

A new clinical trial finds that people with a limited number of metastases from recurrent prostate cancer lived significantly longer without disease progression when they received a radiopharmaceutical drug before targeted radiation, compared with radiation alone.

UCLA presents advances in radiation therapy at ASTRO 2025

Physicians and scientists from the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center will share the latest research and clinical trial results at the 2025 American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) Annual Meeting, including studies on targeted radioactive therapy for recurrent prostate cancer, new approaches to stereotactic body radiation for prostate and head and neck cancers, advances in MRI- and 5DCT-guided imaging for more precise treatments, and innovations in patient-focused cancer education.

Global cancer cases and deaths expected to soar by 2050 despite advances in treatment

There has been a rapid increase in the global number of cancer cases and deaths between 1990 and 2023, despite advances in cancer treatment and efforts to tackle cancer risk factors over that same time period.

Severe obesity linked to lower rates of recommended cancer screenings

In a recent cross-sectional study, researchers from Pennington Biomedical Research Center found that severe obesity is associated with a lower rate of cancer screenings.

Genomic testing speeds patient accrual in high-risk prostate cancer trial

The NRG Oncology NRG-GU009 (PREDICT-RT) study evaluating intensified and de-intensified concurrent radiation regimens based on the genomic risk of patients with high-risk prostate cancer completed accrual and met its accrual milestone of 2,478 patients approximately two years earlier than the trial's anticipated accrual completion date.

Digital twin of lung cancer cell offers new insights into tumor growth and treatment

An enhanced computer model is now helping to provide fresh insights into cancer-cell growth and how it can be stopped. The digital cell model represents another step towards individualized cancer treatment.

Common bladder infection may signal urogenital cancer risk

A bout of the common bladder infection, cystitis, may signal the presence of urogenital cancers-which affect parts of the body involved in reproduction and excretion-in middle aged adults, suggests research published in the open access journal BMJ Public Health.

Why are more older people dying after falls?

For a while, walking the dog felt hazardous. Earl Vickers was accustomed to taking Molly, his shepherd-boxer-something-else mix, for strolls on the beach or around his neighborhood in Seaside, California. A few years ago, though, he started to experience problems staying upright.

Primary care providers less likely to recommend PSA testing for Black men

Although Black men die of prostate cancer at twice the rate of the rest of U.S. males, this fact often is not known or considered during appointments with their primary-care clinicians to discuss a common screening test.

Faster and cheaper MRI proves effective in detecting prostate cancer

A quicker, cheaper MRI scan was just as accurate at diagnosing prostate cancer as the current 30-40 minute scan and should be rolled out to make MRI scans more accessible to men who need one, according to clinical trial results led by UCL, UCLH and the University of Birmingham.
