Age impacts systemic therapy outcomes in metastatic prostate cancer

Many things are evaluated when doctors are putting a treatment plan together for prostate cancer patients. A new study says one more factor should be considered – chronological age.

Researchers achieve long-term remission with novel T cell therapies for HPV-related cancers

Researchers from Rutgers Cancer Institute, New Jersey's only National Cancer Institute (NCI) - designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, and RWJBarnabas Health, along with colleagues from the National Cancer Institute, a center of the National Institutes of Health, announced findings from two HPV-related studies that highlight the potential of novel T cell therapies to achieve long-lasting remission and complete tumor regression in patients with advanced epithelial cancers.

Study uncovers new mechanism for chromosome congression during mitosis

A research team from The University of Osaka, in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has uncovered a new molecular mechanism underlying chromosome alignment during cell division. The study demonstrates that two motor proteins, KIF18A and CENP-E, act cooperatively to ensure proper chromosome congression. Remarkably, simultaneous inhibition of these proteins selectively kills cancer cells, suggesting a promising therapeutic avenue.

Comparative study finds higher rates of adverse events with ticagrelor

One year of treatment with either of two strong blood-thinning medications—ticagrelor and prasugrel—by people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who had a drug-eluting stent placed in their heart to treat coronary artery blockages did not offer the same level of benefit to prevent stent clotting, heart attacks, and bleeding complications, according to findings presented during a preliminary late-breaking science session during the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2025 in New Orleans on November 10.

Green-synthesized nanoparticles enhance cidofovir's anticancer efficacy

In this study, led by Nahid Shahabadi from Razi University in Kermanshah, researchers developed an environmentally friendly approach to enhance the performance of cidofovir, a drug used to treat infections caused by DNA viruses. The work responds to the growing need for therapies that are safer, more effective, and better targeted.

Scientists pinpoint a reason Alzheimer’s patients forget loved ones

One of the most devastating moments for family members of a patient with Alzheimer's is when their loved one forgets who they are. New University of Virginia School of Medicine research may explain why that happens and could lead to a way to prevent it.

New drug combination gains Fast Track Designation for metastatic colorectal cancer

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted Fast Track Designation to a new drug combination for metastatic colorectal cancer, following encouraging results from a clinical trial led in part by the University of Oklahoma Health Stephenson Cancer Center.

UCLA team receives grant to establish new clinical cancer research center for veterans

Dr. Matthew Rettig and his research team have been awarded a Clinical Cancer Research Center grant from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to establish a new clinical cancer research center that will expand access to precision oncology clinical trials and patient care for veterans across the Southwest United States.

Study advances the possibility of age-based pancreatic cancer treatment

While some risk factors for cancer can be mitigated through lifestyle choices such as diet or exercise, aging is not one of them. In the case of pancreatic cancer, it also can limit treatment options if a patient is too frail to be safely treated with surgery or other alternatives.

Study provides insights into the obesity–breast cancer link

Obesity and cancer are two major health challenges of our time, yet the link between them remains only partially understood.

Researchers develop multiethnic model for identifying individuals with skin cancer

Researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine have developed a new approach for identifying individuals with skin cancer that combines genetic ancestry, lifestyle and social determinants of health using a machine learning model.

Uppsala researchers develop Trojan horse approach for medulloblastoma treatment

The malignant pediatric brain tumor medulloblastoma is driven by proteins deep within the cancer cells, for which there are often no effective drugs available.

Study identifies thyroid hormone pathway as key player in prostate cancer development

A hormone produced in the thyroid gland can play a key role in the development of prostate cancer.

Routine liquid biopsy testing could reduce late-stage cancer diagnoses

Routine screening is limited to only a few cancer types. New research indicates that routine liquid biopsy testing (multi-cancer early detection testing) could substantially reduce late-stage cancer diagnoses, allowing patients to receive treatment at earlier cancer stages, which are more likely to respond to interventions.

Complete revascularization reduces the risk of death from cardiovascular causes

Opening all blocked arteries with stents in patients with a heart attack, known as complete revascularization, reduces the risk of death from cardiovascular causes, death from any cause and future heart attacks compared with opening only culprit artery causing the heart attack according to a new, large international study led by researchers at the Population Health Research Institute (PHRI), a joint organization of McMaster University and Hamilton Health Sciences.

Tailored vitamin D3 supplementation lowers risk of heart attack recurrence

A tailored approach of vitamin D3 supplementation in patients who have suffered a heart attack significantly reduces their risk of a second heart attack, a new study from heart researchers at Intermountain Health in Salt Lake City finds.

As health companies get bigger, so do the bills. It’s unclear if Trump’s team will intervene.

A cancer patient might live in a town with four oncology groups, but only one accepts his insurance — the one owned by his insurer.

Coronary artery calcium score could help predict overall health and all-cause mortality

In a new study of more than 40,000 patients, researchers at Intermountain Health in Salt Lake City have found that patients who have no evidence of calcium in their coronary arteries are not only significantly less likely to die from heart conditions – including heart attacks and heart failure– but also are at reduced risk of death from non-cardiac medical conditions.

Genetic and cellular mechanisms underlying steatotic liver disease

Steatotic liver disease (SLD), mainly encompassing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), alcohol-related liver disease (ALD), and metabolic dysfunction and ALD (MetALD), has emerged as the dominant cause of chronic liver disease worldwide, displacing viral hepatitis as the primary aetiology.

Drinking orange juice daily may fine-tune genes tied to cardiovascular wellness

Regular orange juice consumption reprograms immune-cell gene activity linked to blood pressure, lipid metabolism, and inflammation in healthy adults. The molecular effects differ by body weight, suggesting BMI-tailored benefits from this everyday beverage.
