LRIG1 could serve as important biomarker to distinguish between glioma types and grades

A new research paper was published in Oncotarget (Volume 16) on November 6, 2025, titled "LRIG1-3 in gliomas: LRIG1 protein expression decreased in higher grade gliomas."

12 Nov 2025

National initiative helps reduce missed radiation appointments for cancer patients

A national quality improvement program led by the American College of Surgeons (ACS) found that transportation barriers and illness are among the top reasons cancer patients miss critical radiation therapy appointments - and that providing hospitals and patients with structured support can reduce missed appointments by up to 40%.
