Researchers have refined a cutting-edge DNA sequencing tool that reveals how mutations accumulate in healthy tissues as we age, offering insights into the earliest stages of cancer development.
A new study has revealed that the enzyme EZH2 triggers abnormal cell division that fuels metastasis, and blocking this enzyme with existing drugs could restore normal cell behaviour to stop cancer from spreading.
Researchers have discovered a surface protein that helps acute myeloid leukaemia cells evade the immune system, offering potential insights to aid the development of new treatments.
Researchers have developed a new blood test method, CloneSeq-SV, that tracks treatment-resistant ovarian cancer cells over time. The approach could help predict recurrence and guide targeted therapies.
USC researchers have engineered CAR T cells to deliver a dual protein therapy that targets solid tumours – offering hope for cancers previously resistant to treatment.
Early planning for potency CQAs, comparability and evolving global regulations can set advanced therapies on the fastest path to approval. Dr Christian Schneider shares how to prepare from the start to accelerate development without compromising the evidence regulators expect.
A newly discovered RNA molecule, EUDAL, helps oral cancers survive chemotherapy by keeping a key growth protein permanently active. Researchers say targeting EUDAL could predict resistance and improve treatment outcomes.
Researchers have discovered that targeting immune cell ageing can overcome resistance to head and neck cancer treatment.
A new review has highlighted how three-dimensional organoid models are transforming cancer research by replicating the complexity of human tumours – bringing precision oncology closer to the clinic.
Multiomics, AI and liquid biopsies are giving researchers real-time insight into tumour biology and enabling more personalised cancer therapies. Find out how these technologies are advancing biomarker discovery, improving patient stratification, and guiding the design of new treatments.
New research highlights how cancer hijacks the unfolded protein response (UPR) in bone cells – potentially allowing for the development of therapies that target this pathway to prevent fractures.
Researchers in China have discovered how glioblastoma adapts to low-oxygen conditions – revealing a new treatment strategy that combines an orphan drug with standard chemotherapy to overcome resistance.
For decades, molecular glues have been stumbled upon rather than designed. A new scientific approach is now changing that – expanding what is considered druggable.
Colleagues at IQVIA discuss ways to expedite positive HTA outcomes for innovative combination therapies, alleviating the bottlenecks inherent in the current system.
As cancer drugs continue to fail in translation, researchers are turning back to patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models – this time with better science. Could they be the missing link between the lab and the clinic?
