A multidisciplinary team of pathologists, oncologists and biologists has discovered a new biomarker to determine whether immunotherapy may work in people with colon and rectal cancer.
Researchers have developed a new MRI-based method that enables objective quantification of the growth of the most aggressive brain tumours, particularly glioblastoma.
Patient-derived organoids (PDOs), or tumoroids, for pediatric brain cancer show promise in helping researchers find new drugs and better understand the different responses of the tumor.
Researchers discovered that pineoblastoma, retinoblastoma and medulloblastoma – severe brain tumours in children that appear to be completely different – actually arise from the same type of cell.
A research team led by the University of Waterloo is developing a novel tool to treat cancer by engineering hungry bacteria to literally eat tumours from the inside out.
Although tumours may at first shrink under therapy, they often regrow or even become resistant. A new study suggests switching to a second treatment while the tumour is still responding to the first.
Clues in the CSF: Researchers have developed the first high-precision method that can theoretically diagnose common brain tumors in children and adolescents without surgery.
Not all cancer mutations are equal: new research shows that a single mutation hotspot can generate a rich diversity of tumour behaviours. This could lead to more personalised cancer treatments.
Immunotherapy has been hailed as a breakthrough in cancer treatment. But new research reveals: under sustained treatment pressure, cancer does not simply weaken — it adapts, learns, and fights back.
To soften up tumors prior to cancer chemotherapy, a team of researchers paired high-frequency ultrasound waves with a type of sound-responsive particle to reduce the protein content of the tumors.
A novel AI-based method can distinguish between progressive brain tumours and radiotherapy-induced necrosis on advanced MRI. This could help clinicians more accurately identify and treat the issues.
IDH mutated gliomas are slow-growing brain tumors with a relatively good prognosis. A new study shows that many patients reveal measurable cognitive impairment in the first year after treatment.
Most patients with metastatic colorectal cancer do not respond to immunotherapy—but why? A new study shows how the tumours block the immune system through two complementary mechanisms.
An international team has developed an AI model that brings together medical imaging data and clinical information to calculate the risk of breast cancer tumour recurrence more accurately.
Researchers have discovered a previously unknown mechanism that explains how bacteria within a tumor can drive treatment resistance in patients with oral and colorectal cancer.
A new type of SPECT imaging provides strong prognostic information to guide prostate cancer treatments according to tumor evolution, significantly impacting patients' overall survival.
A new technique has measured boron in individual cancer cells for the first time, enabling researchers to better understand how drugs act to kill tumours in some cancers.
Tracer molecules serve to provide visual guidance in nuclear medicine, but a new molecule could give surgeons additional audio cues to help them locate prostate cancer tumors and metastases.
Gadolinium-based contrast agents enhance visibility but also pose a significant health risk. A new AI-powered virtual MRI imaging technique is designed to offer a safer diagnostic approach.
