Researchers have identified a new method of activating specific molecules to target cancer cells while leaving healthy cells unharmed. Using click-release proteolysis targeting chimeras, researchers ...

New study reveals drivers of rare cancer and provides a possible alternative solution to ...

A dendritic cell vaccine administered before and after autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) was safe and immunogenic and was associated with durable clinical responses in patients with high-risk ...

A novel drug target has been newly identified in the fight against drug resistance in cancer ...

Researchers expand the use of ribosome profiling, also known as Ribo-seq, to understand protein production in ...

Tumor vaccines can help the body fight cancer. These vaccines alert the patient's immune system to proteins that are carrying cancer-typical alterations. Physicians and cancer researchers have ...

A study has shown that combining adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) with an innovative, personalized cancer vaccine under development can benefit patients with late-stage, drug-resistant ovarian ...

Scientists found that manipulating how cell's produce energy can reduce melanoma tumor growth and enhance immune response in mice. Their findings may be leveraged to create new cancer ...

Scientists have shown that their steerable lung robot can autonomously maneuver the intricacies of the lung, while avoiding important lung ...

Small cell lung cancer accounts for about 15 percent of all diagnosed lung cancers and is still associated with a high mortality rate. SCLC tumours often develop resistance to chemotherapy and thus ...

Obesity surgery is associated with a 40% lower risk of haematological cancer. This has been shown in a study at the University of Gothenburg. This clear link is expected to influence future research ...

In exploring an aspect of how killer T cells generate the raw materials required for their proliferation, a study has uncovered an unexpected link between the immune cells' metabolism, ...

Biomedical engineers have developed a new hydrogel-based delivery system that balances the acidic environment in a tumor and greatly enhances the cancer-fighting activity of the chemotherapeutic drug ...

Scientists have achieved a significant breakthrough by inventing a new class of near-infrared-activated photo-oxidants that can effectively kill cancer cells without requiring oxygen. The ...

Among available immunotherapies, the use of 'CAR-T' cells is proving extremely effective against certain blood cancers, but only in half of patients. A main reason for this is the premature ...

Scientists discovered a relationship between the immune system's killer T cells and the body's sympathetic stress response ('fight-or-flight') in varying cancer types in mouse and ...

Studying genes in families with a propensity for certain diseases has led to many critical advances in medicine, including the discovery of statins in family members who suffered heart attacks at an ...

Most solid tumors become stiff as the cancer progresses. Although researchers recognize that the environment around the cancer cells influences their behavior, it is unclear how it does so. In a new ...

An innovative phase 2 clinical trial designed to find new potential treatments for glioblastoma has reported initial results. While none of the three therapeutics tested so far improved overall ...

Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR T) therapy has delivered promising results, transforming the fight against various forms of cancer, but for many, the therapy comes with severe and potentially ...
