A diagnosis of prostate cancer is scary for any man, to be sure. But, if there’s any bright spot to be found, it’s the fact that, when found early, prostate cancer is highly curable. That doesn’t mean...
As commonly known in the biomedical community, genetic and epigenetic alterations are regarded as biomarkers for cancer detection, while some scientist looked for new candidates to indentify cancer...
Getting a diagnosis of breast cancer is extremely disconcerting. Even when it’s caught in its earliest stages, the questions, concerns, and stress can add up fast. Patients and their family members...
Breast cancer is heterogeneous in genetic composition. To improve treatments for this disease, Scientists have developed a classification system called IntClust that classifies it into 10 different...
Undoubtedly, there is an urgent need for medical agents to treat metastatic tumors. Pancreatic cancer, as one of the most aggressive types of cancer, cause 95% of the patients to die within 5 years...
Recent research, published in the journal Cancer Cell, reports that scientists have identified and characterized mutated versions of the genes that encoding BCR-ABL, the unregulated enzyme driving the...
The National Cancer Institute has poured massive funds into cancer research, and big Pharmas have developed targets-based blockbusters. Yet a cure remains elusive. To effectively treat patients with...
Scientists present a finding - published in the journal Cancer Research- that an antibody against the protein EphA3 has antitumor effects, providing a new approach to treat solid tumors. As EphA3 is...
A study, published in Science Translational Medicine, reports that tissue-damaging bacteria have been successfully employed in individualized treatment of tumours in rats, dogs and humans. While final...
While not as publicized or well known as other forms of cancer, pancreatic cancer is poised to become the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. That’s why pancreatic cancer association groups...
A diagnosis of cancer can be devastating for anyone. And with so much information coming at us at once, it can be challenging to determine the best route to take in terms of treatment. More than...
When prostate cancer is found in its earliest stages, there are many more treatment options available. But, what about those who need treatment for an advanced form of the disease? Are there...
As investigators usually think, pancreatic cancers have dense stroma that protects malignant cells from chemotherapy. However, new research shows that some elements of the stroma also fight the...
Recently, scientists find that sugar coating, which is more outstanding in cancer cells, regulate cell survivor during tumour spread. The novel study is published in the Nature journal, entitled...
A new study, published in the journal Cell, found that classifying cancer tumors by their molecular structure instead of the tissue or organ may lead to more accurate diagnoses and potentially better...
