While mRNA vaccines work without needing precise cell targeting, cancer therapies require highly selective activation in tumor cells to avoid harming healthy tissue. A new study published in Molecular Therapy […]
The first patient has been treated in a clinical trial that is testing a pioneering virus technology – which originated at Cardiff University – that infects cancer cells, producing an […]
Two major Cochrane reviews provide strong, consistent evidence that HPV vaccines are highly effective in preventing cervical cancer and pre-cancerous changes, especially when given before age 16. Girls vaccinated before […]
Childhood cancers remain the leading cause of disease-related death in young people partly because many tumours become treatment-resistant and relapse. Unlike adult cancers, paediatric tumours carry very few genetic mutations. […]
Researchers at King’s College London have developed a new “companion drug,” KCL-HO-1i, designed to make chemotherapy more effective by dismantling the immune barriers that protect tumours. Tumours recruit immune cells […]
The article discusses Luigi Ombrato’s research on the early stages of cancer metastasis, a critical yet poorly understood phase in cancer progression. While much is known about how tumors grow […]
