Combination cancer therapies can shrink tumors and improve survival outcomes for patients with advanced non-small lung cancer While pembrolizumab is an approved treatment for patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), only some patients...
Treatment of RC frequently relies on neoadjuvant radiotherapy as around 50% of the patients present advanced disease at diagnosis, requiring pre-operative ionizing radiation to shrink the tumor and improve loco-regional control [10]. However, despite the most recent advances in the field of ionizing...
75]. In these tumors, a histological barrier formed by the interaction of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and SPP1+ macrophages decreases immunotherapy efficacy by limiting cytotoxic immune cell infiltration into
could one day help to treat brain cancer without the need for radiation or chemotherapy. We’re not sure when we will see this device actually being used as presumably additional study and tests need to be carried out, but it was approved for use by the FDA for compassionate use treatment...
known as CDK4/6 inhibitors have been approved for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer, doctors have made a startling observation: in certain patients, the drugs—designed to halt cancer cell division—do not just stop tumors from growing but can cause them to shrink, in some cases ...
A multinational team of researchers has shown for the first time that the immune system can stop the growth of a cancerous tumor without actually killing it.

GTV decreased throughout therapy at a median rate of 0.2 cc per treatment day (range, 0.01–1.95 cc/day). Figure 3 shows the volume change for primary tumors and lymph nodes. It was found that both primary tumors and involved lymph nodes lost volume at approximately the same rate...
