Personalizing Cancer Treatment “If you go beyond pancreas cancer to other cancer types, you need a combination therapy to target the tumor and to target the immune system,” he adds. “This is a strategy to be able to do that.” Treatments for cancers like PDAC that could be derived ...
A groundbreaking research effort involving teams from the University of Virginia, Mount Sinai, the University of Michigan, the University of Texas, and others has displayed the clinical efficacy of an innovative therapy that utilizes nanoparticles and laser guidance for prostate cancer treatment. The fi...
NanoparticlesUltrasound therapyHerein, the concept and data for cancer treatment that combines ultrasound and nanoparticles is reported. Non-toxic gold and magnetic nanoparticles were used to enhance the ultrasound destruction of cancer cells in vitro. Separate monolayers of normal an......
Researchers at the University of North Carolina Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center have discovered a potential novel strategy for improving drugs that unleash the immune system against cancer—by binding two compounds to a nanoparticle. "Our data shows that two compounds on a single nanoparticle will...
The drugs, already approved for clinical use, are an anti-cancer drug called docetaxel, and fingolimod, a multiple sclerosis drug that makes tumours more sensitive to chemotherapy. Fingolimod cannot currently be used in cancer treatment because it also supresses the immune system, leaving patients ...
From the practical side of nanoparticles applied to medicine, the control and implementation of magnetic properties are among the most practical applications of nanoparticles for cancer diagnosis and treatment. Its research involves the design, synthesis and characterization of a wide variety of ...
Despite recent advancements in cancer treatment, this disease still poses a serious threat to public health. Vaccines play an important role in preventing illness by preparing the body's adaptive and innate immune responses to combat diseases. As our understanding of malignancies and their connection ...
