Progress toward understanding the role of sex hormones in the growth of prostate cancer -- the most common cancer in US men -- has been hindered by the lack of a suitable laboratory research model. Now researchers say they have developed the first model of hormone-induced human prostate ...
Now, new researchpublishedinScience Advancessuggests there may be a workaround to improve prostate cancer therapy. "We want to develop a new therapeutic approach for androgen deprivation in a way that is more patient-friendly," says Marja Nevalainen, MD, Ph.D., a translational medicine physician...
"Whilethe study provided some of the longest follow-up in prostate cancer research to date, a decade remains a fairly limited window," Laura Newman said at Undark. She noted that more study is needed to know for sure whether the therapies extend lifespan. Some of the treatment effects repor...
In recent years the pace of research in prostate cancer has increased dramatically. Creative ideas in combination with new and emerging technologies have led to an explosion of discovery. These types of advances in prostate cancer research presage an era of new treatment strategies based on an unde...
Share on: Prostate Cancer Becoming Less Deadly Over Time, New Study SaysThe results of a new research study have revealed that prostate cancer, once considered highly dangerous, has been in decline in both diagnoses and deaths. Fewer Cases and Deaths Around the Globe ...
- 《Cancer Research》 被引量: 0发表: 2004年 Transrectal high-intensity focused ultrasound for the treatment of localized prostate cancer: eight-year experience. Objective: To report on the long-term results of high-intensity focused ultrasound in the treatment of localized prostate cancer. Methods:...
A: The panel says there’s now some evidence that screening can save lives. New research shows testing men aged 55 to 69 may slightly reduce their chances ofdying from prostate cancer. There’s also newer evidence that “active surveillance,” which involves repeated PSA testing and close moni...
The authors thank those men with prostate cancer and the subjects who have donated their time and their samples to the Cambridge, Oxford, The Institute of Cancer Research, John Hopkins and University of Tampere BioMediTech Biorepositories for this study. We also acknowledge support of the research...
Different approaches for deciphering genetic data could result in new prostate cancer treatments, a recent study suggests. Research has been increasingly driven towards personalized medicine or therapies that are specifically tailored to the patient’s tumor characteristics from patient genomic data. This ...
Cancer of the prostate gland is the highest unavoidable cause of cancer mortality in men. The recent identification and characterisation of genes specifically expressed in prostate cancer helps us to understand its molecular basis and should offer new therapeutic avenues to combat this disease.关键词:...
