Researchers have made a breakthrough in cancer treatment by harnessing the disease-destroying abilities of the body’s natural killer cells. Their novel nanodrones selectively target a tumor, enabling the killer cells to do what they do best: Suppress c… Continue reading Nanodrones harness natural-born killers to target and destroy cancer
Moderna has announced the results of a Phase 2b trial investigating its mRNA treatment for skin cancer, and it continues a streak of promising news. When paired with an immunotherapy, the treatment significantly reduced the risks of recurrence, metasta… Continue reading mRNA skin cancer therapy halves risk of death in clinical trial
In what has already been tagged as a “game-changer” for cancer treatment, the potent once-a-day tablet known as divarasib has continued to impress at Phase 1b trial stage, outperforming not just current therapies but its previous trial results.Continue… Continue reading Once-a-day pill for stubborn cancer delivers a 62.5% positive response
A new study has found that trans-vaccenic acid, a fatty acid found in dairy products and the meat of grazing animals, may boost the cancer-killing abilities of the immune system’s T cells. Also found to enhance the effectiveness of immunotherapy, the n… Continue reading Fatty acid in beef & dairy found to boost immune cells’ cancer response

All of us have to deal with the looming threat of developing cancer during our lifetime, no matter how good our genetics are, or how healthy our lifestyle is. Despite …read more Continue reading CAR T Cell Immunotherapy And The Quiet Hope For a Universal Cancer Treatment
Researchers have published the results of a clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of an immunotherapy drug in treating a particularly aggressive form of lung cancer. Tarlatamab produced promising results, demonstrating antitumor activity and improving… Continue reading Immunotherapy drug proves promising for deadly small cell lung cancer
Researchers have developed a liquid gel that solidifies when injected into a solid tumor, is visible on a CT scan, and can slow-release cancer-fighting treatments. Using the gel in combination with immunotherapy improved survival in mice and affected d… Continue reading Multifunctional gel developed to treat solid cancer tumors & metastases
Immunotherapy is a promising cancer treatment, but it can take too long to administer. In a new study, scientists at UCLA have taken steps towards an “off-the-shelf” therapy that could be mass produced and quickly rolled out to patients with a variety … Continue reading “Off-the-shelf” cancer immunotherapy inches closer with new mouse study
Vaccines against cancer are somewhat of a holy grail for medicine – but what if you could repurpose a vaccine you’ve already had? Scientists have demonstrated in mice a way to trick the immune system into attacking tumors by mistaking them for a pathog… Continue reading Bacteria-based cancer therapy reactivates vaccines you’ve already had
