| | 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. | |
|
| | Researchers at the University of Oslo and Oslo University Hospital have developed a promising new immunotherapy targeting the CTNNB1 gene mutation associated with various aggressive cancers like lung and prostate cancer. | |
|
| | Research indicates that disease susceptibility genetics poorly predict survival, while longevity PGSs offer stronger associations with post-diagnosis mortality. | |
|
| | Current prostate specific antigen (PSA) testing "may not effectively target testing to those most likely to benefit, raising concerns about overtesting" warn researchers from the University of Oxford in a study of over 10 million men across England published by The BMJ today. | |
|
| | The Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology has launched the ASPIRE trial-a large-scale, Phase III clinical study investigating whether adding chemotherapy to current standard treatments can extend survival for men living with advanced 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. | |
|
| | At a memorial service in 2022, veteran Air Force Capt. Monte Watts bumped into a fellow former Minuteman III nuclear missile operator, who told him that she had non-Hodgkin lymphoma. | |
|
| | Advances in prostate cancer early detection and treatment have improved outcomes in men diagnosed with the disease. | |
|
| | A new study led by researchers from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health found that older adults receiving federal housing assistance were on average diagnosed at earlier stages with three common cancers-colon, breast, and non-small cell lung-compared to peer cancer patients who were not receiving assistance. | |
