This image shows patient derived tumor organoids before (top) and after treatment (bottom). The colors show the activation of pathways related to cell differentiation in cancer stem cells. Shortly after these images were taken, the cancer stem cells spontaneously collapsed. [Pradipta Ghosh/HUMANOID]
Half of patients with advanced melanoma fail to benefit from immune checkpoint blockade, and novel treatments are urgently required. Testing topical medications for anticancer activity in an immunotherapy-resistant murine melanoma […]
A new study by scientists at the University of Manchester, published in Clinical Cancer Research (13 October 2025), has identified genetic variants that make some prostate cancer patients more sensitive to radiation in specific parts of […]
Researchers in Canada were able to mimic children’s response to cancer therapies in zebrafish larvae, which could provide a platform to inform clinical decisions in real-time. The ability to identify […]
Researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), led by Dr. Ryan Stowers, have developed an algae-based hydrogel that mimics the basement membrane of mammary gland tissue. This new […]
