Novel chemosensitivity assay for targeting cancer stem-like cells in brain tumors Cancer stem-like cells (CSLCs) in primary brain tumors can resist certain chemotherapies, thereby causing relapse of the disease. Thus, development of a test that identifies the most effective chemotherapy management off...

The team suggests that DHEA(S) supplementation may be a pharmacologic intervention for cancer‐related cognitive impairment, and plans to conduct additional research studies. This discovery may potentially lead to novel therapeutic interventions to alleviate not only chemobrain, but also other chemotherapy...
