From solid tumors to metastatic carcinomas and leukemia: cancer is among the most common causes of death and has many faces. Keep reading for latest developments in early detection, staging, therapy and research.
Cancer metastasis is responsible for at least two-thirds of cancer deaths. Researchers have developed a multi-organ chip that mimics how cancer cells spread to distant organs to gain new insights.
On the way to a patient's “digital twin”: A novel, AI-powered virtual patient simulation system integrating multimodal data is designed to advance personalised cancer treatment.
Digital pathology and spatial omics could enable researchers to see how a tumor's different cell populations function, opening new perspectives for precision cancer therapy.
As TIL therapy remains difficult to access across Germany and Austria, Sheba offers more than 15 years of experience, in-house cell manufacturing, and one of the world's leading cellular therapy programs for advanced melanoma.
A new study has identified a way to reshape the gut microbiome that can enhance the delivery of certain chemotherapies to tumors, making these nanoparticle-based cancer drugs more effective.
As access to TIL therapy remains limited across Europe, Sheba Medical Center combines 15+ years of experience, in-house manufacturing, and pioneering research to advance melanoma and CAR-T therapies.
The members of the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) recently elected five new officers to its Board of Directors. Beth Erickson, MD, FASTRO, has been elected President of the medical society.
Results from a recently published clinical trial suggest that combining focused ultrasound with chemotherapy may improve tumor response and survival outcomes in patients with pancreatic cancer.
Chemotherapy of many childhood cancers leaves specific traces in the DNA, a new study finds. These changes could help clinicians spot treatment resistance earlier, before cancer returns or spreads.
Tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes are key players in cancer immunotherapy. New research explores the role of location in the tumour microenvironment – knowledge that could help improve treatments.
Photothermal therapy to selectively destroy cancer cells shows promise as a much less invasive treatment option than surgery or radiation. Now, researchers cleared two major hurdles for the method.
A swallowable "nanocage" may offer a new strategy for treating gastric cancer more precisely while reducing damage to healthy tissue, according to findings from a new preclinical study.
Ultra-fast delivery, fewer side-effects: Results from the FAST-02 trial show that proton Flash therapy can be safely delivered to cancer patients with metastases in proximity to vital organs.
Tiny algae-based robots guided by magnets could improve bladder cancer treatment by boosting delivery of chemotherapy drugs into tumours, results from a new study suggest.
Radiopharmaceutical therapy has already transformed care for neuroendocrine tumors and prostate cancer, but other tumor types still lack targeted treatment options. A new approach could change this.
A new survey highlights major gaps in cardio-oncology training, despite its increasing clinical importance for prevention and early management of cardiovascular complications in patients with cancer.
Measuring radiodensity of visceral fat and muscle from CT scans, researchers have identified a new biomarker that may help determine the prognosis for patients with gastric cancer.
A Taiwanese research team found that BET inhibitors can restore exhausted T cells by reprogramming their metabolism – a potential new strategy for cancer immunotherapy.
AI is transforming the way cancer is diagnosed and treated. Dr Yuri Tolkach shared his group's advances in developing AI-based tools for oncological pathology at the DPAI Europe congress.
