Purpose Recent success of the National Lung Screening Trial has driven a number of clinical and patient advocate groups to propose guidelines for lung cancer screening with low dose CT scans. However, the false positive rate was 96% and 24% of lung surgeries resulted in benign disease in the ...

Cancer patients have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality than the general population. Low dose computed tomography (LDCT) for lung cancer screening offers an opportunity for simultaneous CVD risk estimation in at-risk patients. Our deep learning CVD risk prediction model, trained...
Adoptive T cell therapy is a pivotal strategy in cancer immunotherapy, demonstrating potent clinical efficacy. However, its limited durability often results in primary resistance. High-throughput screening technologies, which include both genetic and non
a lung cancer mouse model, introducing sgRNA alongside ACT revealed the testicular cancer antigen ADAM Metallopeptidase Domain 2 (ADAM2) as an immune modulator. ADAM2 reduces tumor antigen expression and impedes the Type I and II IFN and TNFα pathways, contributing to the establishment of a ...
