Experts said the inexpensive liquid biopsy could also lead to earlier diagnosis, which in turn would speed up treatment and potentially increase survival rates. The test would be particularly beneficial for patients with “inaccessible” braintumours, who could benefit from starting treatment as soon a...
The greatest increase in survival rates was seen for leukaemia, which increased by 21 per cent over the 23 years studied. But survival for brain tumours, bone cancers and soft tissue sarcomas hasn’t changed significantly since the mid-1980s. Professor Birch added: “Our research has also iden...
During the 1990s, some 50% of brain tumours were specified as arising in the frontal, parietal, temporal or occipital lobes, and only 3% arose in the cerebellum or brain stem, but the site was poorly specified or unspecified for 42% of tumours. The proportions are similar to those for the...
Brain tumours had the lowest survival rate at 46.4%. A comparison between ethnic groups showed white children to have the highest survival rate (62.8%); the rate for children of mixed racial origin was 53.8% and that for black children 48.5%. Conclusions. Overall survival rates for children ...

Additionally, as meningiomas and pituitary tumors have been detected at increasing rates across all ages and may potentially be treated with radiation, it is important to know and communicate the risk of secondary tumors in children and adults. After conducting an extensive literature search, we ...
Ethnicity is not recorded at death, and death rates for South Asians were constructed by assigning ethnicity from the name in the national mortality database in the Office for National Statistics (Mangtani et al, 2010), in the same way as for the cases in the national cancer registry. The...
Inhibition of CXCR7 with CCX662 post IR prolongs the survival of rats with ENU-induced brain tumours. Pregnant rats were injected with the carcinogen ENU on day 17 of gestation. When the progeny were 115 days old, before their brain tumours were large enough to produce neurological symptoms, ...
