Early detection of cancer not only holds promise for its cure but also reduces the cost of treatment. Recently, certain biomarkers associated with tumor growth and development have been utilized for early diagnosis of cancer. Detection of these biomarkers in biological fluid using molecular techniques...
Drs Socinski and Sabari explain the different types of testing methods commonly used in their clinical practice and share advice for community oncologists who are testing for biomarkers in their patients with NSCLC. EP: 1.Importance of Biomarker Testing in Patients with NSCLC ...
Biomarkers include biomolecules like carbohydrates, proteins, lipids to genes, DNA, RNA, platelets, enzymes, hormones, etc. Anything that helps in the identification of a disease can serve as a biomarker, be it a metabolite, a change in biological structure or biological processes, or a character...

Scientists have taken an interest in a optical biosensor for detecting cancer tumors biomarkers as a possible tool for early illness analysis. These techniques have the possible to assist in the introduction of efficient treatments, fundamentally ultimately causing a greater rate of patient survival. Th...
It was found that prolonged inhalation of some forms of the tiny fibers can result in a lung condition known as asbestosis or in mesothelioma, which is a rapidly fatal form of lung cancer. Once these health risks were firmly documented in the 1970s, regulatory agencies in the United States...

Cancers are complex diseases orchestrated by a plethora of extrinsic and intrinsic factors. Research spanning over several decades has provided better understanding of complex molecular interactions responsible for the multifaceted nature of cancer. Rece
In 2017, lung cancer is projected to be the second most prevalent type of cancer in the United States, with about 222,500 new cases and is estimated to still be the leading cause of cancer-related death, with 155,870 deaths.
