New research finds patients whose facility was impacted by a wildfire disaster during recovery from lung cancer surgery had longer length of stay (LOS) than similar patients treated at the same facility, but when no disaster occurred.

Tel Aviv University researchers used CRISPR to cut the SOX2 gene from head and neck cancer cells, eliminating 50% of tumors in mice. The study highlights CRISPR’s potential for cancer treatment.

Researchers found that frequent blood donation may favor genetic adaptations in blood stem cells, promoting healthy regeneration. While mutations in leukemia-associated genes were present, they differed from preleukemic variants.

Researchers have developed a "colocatome" that illustrates how noncancerous cells affect their neighboring tumor cells.

Researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus have successfully developed an iteration of CAR-T cell therapy that can enhance the effectiveness and longevity of the cells, particularly against hard-to-treat cancer cells.

Researchers have uncovered a source of "replication stress" during DNA replication, shedding light on a new cancer target.

Certain proteins in cerebrospinal fluid could act as key indicators for a harmful side effect of cancer immunotherapy, offering hope for early treatment or even prevention of this neurotoxic condition.

Using glioma tumor samples, researchers looked for genetic mutational signatures, finding one previously associated with exposure to haloalkene, a substance found in flame retardants, fire extinguishers, and pesticides.

A new study led by UCLA investigators suggests that chronic stress and an unhealthy diet may work together to fuel the early development of pancreatic cancer, shedding light on how lifestyle factors contribute to one of the deadliest malignancies.

A new study assessed two ways that primary-care practices could assess patients’ hereditary cancer risks and deliver testing to those identified as higher risk.
